Summary/Abstract: This work is aimed to determine the efficiency of the use of TacticalPad software in the preparation of a professional team. Study of the literature revealed a number of technical means, which offer a wide range of options to the coaches, in order to objectify and direct the preparation process. The practical experience in performance football has allowed me to identify the software mentioned above, as distinct means, which stands out from the multitude of technical solutions already existing, by the option that allows the user to create football-specific exercises in the form of 2D and 3D graphics and what is even more important, to present the means created in motion, this option being the one that exceeds the technical limitations of most existing software. The study involved the implementation of TacticalPad in the performance strategy of a professional premier league club in Oman, being used during the preparation period, the pre-competitive period and the beginning of the competition period. The above mentioned software has been used 4 times in the preparation process structured on 6 or 7 days microcycles, as follows: 1-creating the means of training in 2D, 3D format and presenting in motion these means, before the start of the training, in the standard, usual presentation of the program; 2-tactical analysis of specific training moments; 3-scouting; 4-tactical analysis of training and official games; The results obtained and the quality of the game of the team to which we implemented TacticalPad, can be a starting point in the continuous development of football performance, advocating for the use of this application in training and competitions, based on the considerations mentioned at length in this paper.
