A few questions to help you with your analysis

A hands-on opportunity to sharpen your analytical and storytelling skills by diving into the world of sports medicine and athlete health.

In this scenario, you’ll step into the role of a Sports Performance Analyst, working with a real-world-inspired dataset that captures injury data across teams, athletes, and seasons — similar to what you might find in elite sports clubs, federations, or medical performance units.

The dataset includes thousands of injury records logged by medical and coaching staff, covering a range of injury types, severities, positions, sports categories, and return-to-play timelines. You'll have access to athlete demographics, treatment protocols, recovery durations, training loads, and other contextual data related to injury occurrence and recovery.

Your objective is to uncover insights that help improve player safety and optimize recovery strategies. This includes identifying the most frequent and costly injuries, analyzing the impact of playing surfaces or workloads, comparing recovery times across treatment types, and evaluating coaching or regional patterns. You’ll also explore which teams or staff maintain lower injury rates and propose data-driven recommendations to minimize risk and enhance athlete health.

Explore, analyze, and deliver clarity. Step into the role, and let the data tell the story.

KEY QUESTIONS TO EXPLORE

1. Which types of injuries occur most frequently?

2. Which sports or events have the highest rate of injury?

3. What treatments correlate with faster recovery?

4. Are injuries more common in specific athlete age groups or genders?

5. How does injury severity vary across different types of sports or positions?

6. Do certain coaches or training loads influence return-to-play timelines?

7. How long does recovery typically take for various injury types?

8. Which treatment methods are most effective for speeding up recovery?

9. Are there regional differences in injury frequency or severity?

10. Do certain coaches or teams have consistently lower injury rates?

11. Does the playing surface or competition level affect injury occurrence?

12. What is the total cost of treatment and absence per club or season?

13. Which injury categories drive the highest medical expenses?

14. What recommendations can you make to prevent common injuries and improve athlete health?
