TY - JOUR TT - Two Stage Approach for the Performances of Teams in Football Using Data Envelopment Analysis AU - Alp, İhsan AU - Özsoy, Volkan Soner PY - 2017 DA - September JF - Gazi University Journal of Science PB - Gazi University WT - DergiPark SN - 2147-1762 SP - 195 EP - 208 VL - 30 IS - 3 KW - Football KW - Team Performance KW - Performance Analysis KW - Data Envelopment Analysis N2 - Football is a verypopular subdivision of sports for our country, as all around the world and themoney spent for football is on a large scale. In spite of this, scientificstudies interested in the statistical, economical dimensions and performanceevaluation for the football are scarce in our country even in the world.  One of the reasons of this is not to recordfootball statistics in our country. FIFA statistics can be hold as a sample inthis field. FIFA, holds about fifty numbers of different football statistics atplayer basis or team level during the World Cup matches. It is obvious that theperformance of players one by one and as an entire and the team’s performanceis so important.The goal of thisstudy is to pioneer for how the performance analysis is applied and how itsresults can be benefited in football if the statistics are recorded. Displayingthe numerical size of defectiveness mathematically also helps trainers andplayers. On the other hand, the output oriented CCR model of data envelopmentanalysis and super efficiency model AP were used. CR - Alp, İ.
