Hi,

I am an offensive assistant coach and I'm looking for some help on tracking statistics for the offense. I need to capture things like the number of touches our offensive guys get, the number of yards gained per play, completions, passing yards, 3rd down conversions, 4th down conversions, receptions, carries, yards per carry, yards per reception, etc but I'm struggling with getting things lined up properly and the correct formulas added. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Do you have a sample of your dataset? Your question is a bit vague. It's hard to say why your cells aren't lining up properly without looking at it.

Without seeing a sample of your data, it is really hard to give any advice. MrExcel has a tool called “XL2BB” that lets you post samples of your data that will allow us to copy/paste it to our Excel spreadsheets, so we can work with the same copy of data that you are. Instructions on using this tool can be found here: XL2BB Add-in

Note that there is also a "Test Here” forum on this board. This is a place where you can test using this tool (or any other posting techniques that you want to test) before trying to use those tools in your actual posts.

That being said, things like this, which typically fall into the realm of relational databases, tend to work much better in relational database programs like Microsoft Access, which are very dynamically and can easily be queried.

I just started working on this so I don't have a lot of the formulas done. I'm really a novice at excel so excuse any errors. Thanks for at least taking a look.

What exactly isn't lining up? Without seeing your "Play Call Script" sheet, I can't verify if your cell references are correct.

In your "Touch Chart" sheet, try into cell C3
=Vlookup(B3, 'Play Call Script'!$G:$H,2,FALSE)
and then use autofill (double click on the bottom right corner of cell C3)

First, let's address the "Touches" (Column H) on your "Play Call Script". Your formula is currently counting the player number instead of touches. For example, it's counting how many play number 3 are there in column D. Excel looks at column D and sees there's no player #3, so the output is 0. Whereas, There's one player #5 in column D, so excel returns 1. I think what you meant to do is find out how many touches each player did instead. Is this correct?

yes, that is correct
