How are sprints calculated?

'Sprints' and 'Sprint Distance' are calculated according to a specific sprint threshold (Adult sprint threshold or Youth sprint threshold).

Your 'Sprints' include the total number of times you reach the relevant sprint threshold (or above) for at least one second, and your 'Sprint Distance' includes the cumulative distance you cover at the relevant sprint threshold (or above). 

Below are CITYPLAY's two sprint thresholds:

Adult Sprint	Youth Sprint
A player must reach / exceed a speed of 5.5 m/s or 6 yd/s for ≥ 1 second.	A player must reach / exceed a speed of 4.2 m/s or 4.6 yd/s for ≥ 1 second.

If you are not seeing any data in your 'Sprints' and 'Sprint Distance' metrics, or your data display is '0', then this means that you did not run fast enough to reach the relevant sprint threshold.

NOTE: You can manually choose which sprint threshold you'd like your data to be based on from your 'Preferences' inside the 'Settings' of the app. Read this article to learn how to change your sprint threshold on the app.
