Technical Details
- Variable Type: Discrete Metric / Dimension
- Data Type: Categorical
- Units: N/A
- Column Name: (implementation-specific)
- Measurement: Player handedness (e.g., ‘left’, ‘right’) used to define dominant arm and side
Description
Handedness indicates which hand the player uses to serve. It is typically a required input for processing (with Dimensions) and is used to interpret dominant-side events and metrics (e.g., low arm, apex, shoulder external rotation).Use Cases
- Defining dominant vs. non-dominant side for metrics
- Filtering and grouping by handedness
- Consistent interpretation of limb-specific metrics
