Z-Institute’s visual “Spine” system
The passes in a
soccer game are not accidental, but are orchestrated within the framework of a
team’s system of play. The interactions between the players on the field are analogous to our
bodily activities; they are coordinated
and communicated through our central nervous system.
The term “Spine” was adopted by the Z-Institute to illustrate the
interactions between players in the spine,
which represents the dynamic system of play on the field.
Each circle in the spine represents the center location of the player’s primary playing area
where he is most active on the field. The lines linking the
circles represent the connecting links
between the players; the thicker the
line, the more connecting
passes between them.
