myPI explained: the performance value per player

The myPerformance Index, myPI for short, sums up a player’s performance in one game as a single number. Here’s how it’s built and how to read it.

In short: every player starts each game at 100. Every recorded action adds or subtracts points. Across several games the app shows the average. Above 100 means: contributed more than it cost.

Where to find the myPI Premium

Player detail: value per game and trend over the season.
Match report: the game’s myPI ranking.
Season analysis: each player’s average over the season.
List statistics: as one of the selectable values in lists.

The points table is in the app too: expand How it’s calculated below the myPI.

The points

Action	Points
Goal (simply tapped, no extra details)	+6
Missed shot (simply tapped)	−5
7 metres: goal	+6
7 metres: saved or missed	−7

7 metres: conceded	−3

Goals and missed shots: where it came from counts

If a shot carries more than just “goal” or “missed”, the app is more precise. A goal from the back court is harder than one from the pivot, a missed fast break hurts more than a missed long-range shot:

Shot	Goal	Missed
Free throw	+10	−2
9 metres (back court)	+10	−4
Backcourt	+7	−6
Fast break	+5	−8
Wing, 6 metres, breakthrough, pivot	+6	−7
no extra details	+6	−5

If several details are recorded, the most specific wins: first the shot type fast break or free throw, then the shot position, then breakthrough or pivot. Recording shot type and position is Premium.

Worked example

A back-court player scores 5 goals from 9 metres, misses twice without further details, gives 3 assists and has one turnover:

100 + 5 × 10 − 2 × 5 + 3 × 4 − 6 = 146

How to read it

Compare within your team and across your own games, not with other clubs that record differently. Recording shot positions gives different values than tapping goals only.
Goalkeepers are rated through saves and goals conceded. For that to be fair, goals conceded should go to the right keeper, see Goalkeeper and goals conceded.
The season value is an average over the games in which the player has recorded actions. A game without any action doesn’t count as 100.
Model: the points follow the performance rating of the German Handball-Bundesliga, but it’s our own calculation. We deliberately show the raw value without rescaling it to a fixed range, because it’s more telling at club level.
