# SoccerNet Challenge 2026 - Action Anticipation Dataset
<!-- Provide a quick summary of the dataset. -->
The SoccerNet Action Anticipation dataset splits the [2024 ball action spotting dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/SoccerNet/SN-BAS-2024) into 30 second clips, which can then be used to anticipate between 10 action classes that will happen 5 seconds into the future. This is the dataset used for 2026 SoccerNet Action Anticipation challenge.
## Relevant Links

- **Paper:** https://huggingface.co/papers/2504.12021
## Uses
<!-- Address questions around how the dataset is intended to be used. -->
### Direct Use
<!-- This section describes suitable use cases for the dataset. -->
The direct use of this dataset is to participate in the 2026 SoccerNet Action Anticipation challenge. For a quick demo the FAANTRA repository can be used to train and evaluate on the dataset.
### Other Use
The dataset can be used for further action anticipation research within the soccer field.
## Download
The setup_dataset_BAA.py script inside the FAANTRA repository can be used to download and setup the dataset.
## Dataset Structure
<!-- This section provides a description of the dataset fields, and additional information about the dataset structure such as criteria used to create the splits, relationships between data points, etc. -->
The dataset is structured as:
```
224p
|_train.zip
|_valid.zip
|_test.zip
|_challenge.zip
720p
|_train.zip
|_valid.zip
|_test.zip
|_challenge.zip
```
Each zip file contains a split at a specific resolution. Each split is structured as:
```
split
|_clip_1
|_{224p|720p}.mp4
|_clip_2
|_{224p|720p}.mp4
...
|_Labels-ball.json
```
The challenge split however, does not contain annotations, and therefore does not have the Labels-ball.json file.
