System and Method for Monitoring a Style of Play

A system for use with a shoe and a second shoe, the first shoe having a first pod disposed therein, the first pod including a timer, a positioning component, a controlling component, a memory and a processing component, the timer being operable to establish a time frame, the positioning component being operable to determine a first geodetic location of the first shoe at a first time within the time frame and to determine a second geodetic location of the first shoe at a second time within the time frame, the controlling component being operable to generate activity data based on the first geodetic location, the second geodetic location and the time frame, the memory being operable to store the activity data, the processing component being operable to retrieve the first activity data from the memory and to wirelessly transmit processed activity data based on the first activity data, the positioning component being further operable to determine a first geodetic location total time corresponding to a total time the shoe is located at the first geodetic location within the time frame, the second shoe having a second pod disposed therein, the second pod including a second timer, a second positioning component, a second controlling component, a second memory and a second processing component, the second timer being operable to establish a second time frame, the second positioning component being operable to determine a third geodetic location of the second shoe at a third time within the second time frame and to determine a fourth geodetic location of the second shoe at a fourth time within the second time frame, the second controlling component being operable to generate second activity data based on the third geodetic location, the fourth geodetic location and the second time frame, the second memory being operable to store the second activity data, the second processing component being operable to retrieve the second activity data from the second memory and to wirelessly transmit second processed activity data based on the second activity data, the second positioning component being further operable to determine a second geodetic location total time corresponding to a second total time the second shoe is located at the third geodetic location within the second time frame, said system comprising:

• a receiver operable to wirelessly receive the processed activity data from the processing component and to wirelessly receive the second processed activity data from the second processing component;
• a processing component operable to output first shoe data corresponding to the processed activity data relative to the second processed activity data;
• and
• a graphic user interface portion operable to generate a graphic user interface to display the first shoe data.
