Arenas

An Arena combines 4, 6 or 8 configurations so up to 16, 24 or 32 athletes train at once. Plan around 4 athletes per configuration.

Your configurations and what they train

Showing your configurations. Show all configurations

Every configuration includes

A Player ID System (ROXScanner + 50 ID bands), a dedicated Control Tablet already set up with ROXPro and labelled for its configuration, and Operating System Access.

Charge everything

Start charging as soon as the boxes arrive: about 2.5 h the first time, then about 2 h. Battery colour: red ≤ 40%, yellow 41–80%, flashing green ≥ 81%, solid green full.

Check tablets and labels

Each tablet arrives pre-configured for one configuration. Match every tablet and its pods to the configuration on its label.

Power on and connect

Hold your palm over the power button for 5 seconds until the pod vibrates and flashes green. In the app: SETUP → ROX Status → Synchronize. Pods turn from yellow to green.

Fit the accessories

Mount the accessories your configuration uses.

The whole process at a glance

One person can do it alone; the second person roughly halves the time. Numbers here are for a 250-player intake; scale them to your squad.

Phase 1 · Prepare

• Create 250 profiles in one bulk upload from the Excel template, IDs 1–250
• Player names entered as numbers only, no text names
• Every coach account added to every athlete row
• Teams / classes (e.g. U12) assigned, if you use them
• Physical count: 250 bands present and labelled 1–250
• Bands sorted ascending, 5 trays of 50
• Reader powered on, battery ≥ 80%, WiFi connected
• ROXPro app launched, reader paired to the tablet

Done when: 250 profiles live, bands sorted, reader paired.

Phase 2 · Sync

• Tablet: More → Club Athletes
• Open the player, tap Sync band on the player tab
• Hold the band within 2 cm of the reader for 1–2 seconds
• Move to the next band and repeat, in numerical order
• At band 25: pause 2 min for the checkpoint (below)
• Continue straight through to band 250

Done when: every profile in the list shows the band icon. That icon is the confirmation; no separate sign-off needed.

★ The checkpoint at band 25

• Start a drill with Start by Scanner
• Use a handful of the first 25 bands with the reader
• Check the Club Dashboard shows the correct player IDs
• All correct? Carry on to 250: the setup is proven

Something off? Fix it now, after 25 bands of work instead of 250. This replaces a separate trial run: same evidence, nothing done twice.

Phase 3 · Confirm

• 250 profiles exist, IDs 1–250, no gaps
• Every profile has a band icon, each with a unique sync ID
• Dashboard results land on the right player during a live drill
• Re-sync any individual band that looks wrong

Done when: 250/250 linked, no duplicates, dashboard reads correctly.

Phase 4 · Hand out

• Export the player → band list
• Distribute bands to coaches / coordinators against the inventory list
• Generate the sync report: 250/250 synced
• Archive the report; notify implementation lead, coaches, coordinators
• Power down the reader, return to storage, lock the sync session

Done when: bands deployed, report archived, all profiles ACTIVE.

If something goes wrong

Start with the pre-designed drills

Every configuration comes with drills designed by our sport-science team, ready to use in the app. Your Partner Channel holds your onboarding plan: Sessions 1–3, 4–6 and 7–9, with 3–5 drills per configuration. Pick the drill that matches today's football problem.

Before every session

• Pods charged and green in ROX Status
• ROXScanner charged and paired
• Players scan in with Start by Scanner

Custom charging solution? Just plug your charger into the configuration. You can keep training while it charges. Any questions, reach out to your account manager.

NewSelf-service mode

Lock the Control Tablet so it shows only your private channel's video-guided drills for that configuration. Players and staff coaches see just the exercises they need, without the more complex views of the app. Ideal when players train on their own or when a less experienced coach runs the configuration.

After the session

Power off, then charge: keep the sensors mounted and plug the configuration into its custom charging solution, or return the pods to the charging base (not overnight). If you don't have a custom charger option for your configuration, reach out to your account manager.

Two views of every player

Football Execution Radar graph: First Touch, Passing, Dribbling, Shooting. Each skill progresses through 10 levels. Athlete Profile, shown separately: SPRINT & AGILITY PERFORMANCE.

Run a test

1. Warm up 8–10 min with default Open React.
2. Go to Explore → Standard Athlete Tests → 15m Speed Test or 30m Speed Test for the SPRINT & AGILITY PERFORMANCE.
3. For the Radar Graph skill assessment, go to Explore → Levels → Select skill.
4. Players scan in with Start by Scanner.
5. Check every result is assigned before the next player.

NewSession Wrap & Player Score Card

1. Open a session for one or more players from the app, on any device
2. Players train as normal; every exercise is recorded to their profile
3. Close the session after the player's last exercise
4. The system emails the player a summary of that session: their Session Wrap and Score Card

Players leave every session with proof of their progress, and parents see it too.

NewCustom leaderboards

Set up your own leaderboards on the Club Dashboard: choose the drill, the group and the period, then show it on the big screen in your facility. Use them for competition blocks, events and to keep intensity high.

Share the results

Review the dashboard the same day and export analytics after each test block.

Add pressure: change one setting

Shorter timeout or delay, sound on for auditory scanning only. Explore the settings that can give you unlimited progression options of the same base exercise. Change one at a time so progress stays measurable.

Run groups in parallel (if it fits your setup)

Grouping splits the pods into up to 4 groups, each with its own colour, so several players or teams train on the same configuration at once. It's useful for larger squads and competitions. Skip it if you train one player at a time.

Explore the Open Programs

Beyond the pre-designed drills, Open Programs such as Distraction, Memory, Indicator and Lights Out let you build your own challenges. Find them all in the video library.
