Abstract

We present an open, sport-agnostic platform that turns tracking into comparable spatial measures across professional Ultimate, basketball, and soccer. Coaches in all three sports ask the same question: where is the usable space, and when should an off-ball run start? Our workflow standardizes inputs, provides timing-aware spatial evaluations, and makes it possible to reuse the same analysis across sports. We illustrate the approach with Ultimate as a focused testbed and then examine transfer between basketball and soccer. Together, these results show a practical path toward consistent, comparable evaluation across various invasion sports.
