Leaderboard Table Dashboard: A Detailed Overview

The Leaderboard Table Dashboard allows you to rank athletes based on the latest value recorded for a selected field. This dashboard is commonly used to create leaderboards, recognize top performers, and compare athletes within a group.

Unlike historical dashboards that display trends over time, the Leaderboard Table Dashboard focuses on the most recent value available for each athlete and ranks athletes accordingly.

2. Field

Select the field that will be used to rank athletes.

Examples include:

Understanding Leaderboard Tables

The Leaderboard Table Dashboard displays the latest recorded value for each athlete and ranks them according to the selected field.

The ranking is recalculated automatically as new data is entered into the platform.

For example, if an athlete records a new vertical jump score that exceeds the current leader, they will move to the top of the leaderboard after the data is saved.

Example 1: Vertical Jump Leaderboard

Configuration:

• Field = Vertical Jump
• Label = Vertical Jump
• Unit = in
• Sort Lowest to Highest = Unchecked
• Number of Leaders to Show = 10

Result:

The dashboard displays the top 10 athletes with the highest recorded vertical jump values.

Example 2: Sprint Time Leaderboard

Configuration:

• Field = 40-Yard Dash
• Label = Sprint Time
• Unit = sec
• Sort Lowest to Highest = Checked
• Number of Leaders to Show = 5

Result:

The dashboard displays the five athletes with the fastest sprint times.
