Collective tactical variables for the midcourt sub-group attack and defence possessions adjusted for possession duration, score difference, ladder point’s difference, match trend and season trend.

Dashed lines separate the variables into the clusters defined by the correlations in Table 2. With the exception of the mean centroid longitudinal and lateral, the statistics were derived via log-transformation, hence SDs are shown as percents. Data for attack and defence are predicted means (raw units) from the mixed model, and SDs are an appropriate residual representing differences between possessions. Data for attack minus defence are predicted mean differences (% units) with 90% compatibility limits (% units) and decisions about the magnitude of the differences.
