More firepower for your sports modelling arsenalSports modelling is one of the ultimate intellectual challenges. It involves the application of careful, reasoned skill in the face of considerable parameter uncertainty. As you’ve likely discovered, there is a lot more to it than simply picking a winning team.Following up where my first book left off, Statistical Sports Models in Excel Volume 2 aims to provide you with even more tools, techniques and ideas that can be used to take your sports modelling efforts to the next level using beginner-friendly Excel.Drawing from an even larger collection of spreadsheet models than before, each chapter will provide you with downloadable working models so that you can easily follow along as I walk you through the concepts step-by-step. Player based models, derivatives and props are among the areas of interest that will be discussed at length.If you’re ready to add even more firepower to your sports modelling arsenal, open this book, load up a spreadsheet and let’s get back at it.Note: SSME Volume 2 picks up where SSME Volume 1 left off, so some understanding of the material contained in the first book is assumed.
