Observational methodology is an inventive approach for performance analysis in sport that hasopened up a new panorama of useful and productive research in recent years (Preciado et al.).This Research Topic (RT) responds to the need for practitioners to understand athlete and teamperformance in individual, dual, and team sports. This RT presents a collection of scientific articlesthat use observational methods, enlightening the search for performance indicators in sports,particularly how the selection and combination of Performance Key Elements (PKE) positivelyimpact the achievement of the best performances (Brito de Souza et al.; Pérez-Turpin et al.).Additionally, the analysis of contextual variables, such as opponent level, match location ormatch status, provides insights into how PKE perform and consequently, impact success in sport(Valldecabres et al.).
