A scout is allowed access to a note taking application 400 on a device when the device has reached a predetermined geographical location. Upon the scout activating the note taking application the scout is presented with a timeline 402 for capturing information about an individual (possibly a football player) engaged in an activity (possibly a football game). The scout is presented with an option for selecting from one of a plurality of predefined events 410 which may occur during the activity. Upon the scout selecting one of the plurality of predefined events the scout is presented with a set of one or more choices 414 for further detailing the selected event, where the set of one or more choices are predefined and related to the event selected by the scout. Upon the scout selecting the one or more choices the selected event and the selected one or more choices are entered onto the timeline and displayed on the device. A GPS geo-fencing function on the device may be used to determine when the device has reached the predetermined location.
