Students gain practical experience by coding their own Player Efficiency Rating model and applying their analytical skills in an All-Camp Fantasy Baseball League.
Students at the Sports Analytics Camp delve into the exciting world where sports meet data science. They learn to make informed decisions based on statistics to organize teams and evaluate players, much like a professional general manager. A core component of the camp involves computer coding, specifically using Java, to develop a Player Efficiency Rating (PER) model. Campers gain the autonomy to decide how to weight various statistical categories based on their research and understanding of sports analytics. The curriculum also includes participation in an All-Camp Fantasy Baseball League, providing a practical application for their newly acquired analytical skills. Major projects include analyzing a favorite sports team or player to identify areas for improvement using statistical insights, and coding a personalized PER program. The camp aims to transform participants into knowledgeable sports fans, enhance their fantasy sports abilities, and potentially lay the groundwork for a career in the rapidly expanding sports analytics industry.
A typical day involves specialized learning in sports analytics, coding a Player Efficiency Rating (PER) model, and engaging in collaborative activities and fun, with regular camp hours from 9am to 3pm.
This camp is ideal for middle and high school students who are passionate about sports, interested in statistics and data analysis, and eager to learn computer coding to understand and improve sports performance and fantasy sports strategies.
