Abstract:
In this paper, the dominant factor for sustainable growth in football teams is described. Using the data of Japan-League teams, we conducted machine learning based regression and its interpretation by Shapley values revealed the Academy development was significant. In the financially large-scaled strongest teams, the Academy development is important to sustain the high scores/ranking. In small or medium sized teams, Academy development is another approach for growth to the upper league under limited budget. To measure the Academy development level, Matsuhashi’s Measure based on Shapley values is proposed and it is proven that Matsuhashi’s Measure has the highest correlation with the top strongest teams’ winning points.
