    I have been making progress with my research. After being told to specify my research, I have been looking into how data is being used for injury prevention in sports because it can cost teams a lot of money when their best players aren't playing. I find that interesting. If you can find a way to accumulate data and predict when a player is going to go down based on where they have taken blows over the past month or etc, that can make a significant impact on teams. In fact, this technology is already being used in rugby by a team called Leicester Tigers. Case studies like these provide me with the necessary insight for me to then see if it can be applied to soccer.
