A method for automatically evaluating a progression of a training exercise, comprising: providing a plurality of location information for at least one movable object (120; 120a, 120b) participating in the training exercise, wherein providing the plurality of location information comprises determining the position of the movable object (120; 120a, 120b) within an exercise area using a position tracking system at several successive points in time; providing at least one further piece of location information using a graphical user interface which comprises a graphical representation of the exercise area and a graphical representation of an exercise object (110a -110j) involved in the training exercise in a graphical display, wherein the further piece of location information indicates the position of the exercise object (110a - 110j) involved in the training exercise within the exercise area, and wherein the exercise object (110a - 110j) is generally movable, but moving the exercise object (110a - 110j) is not the objective of the training exercise; providing at least one predetermined exercise target, wherein providing the exercise target comprises defining a desired interaction between the movable object and the exercise object (110a - 110j) involved in the training exercise; comparing the plurality of location information to the exercise target; and evaluating the progression of the training exercise based on the result of the comparison, wherein providing the at least one predetermined exercise target comprises selecting at least one used evaluation logic for the location information from a plurality of available evaluation logics, wherein providing the further piece of location information comprises comparing the position of the graphical representation of the exercise object (110a -110j) within the graphical representation of the exercise area to a position of the exercise object determined using the position tracking system within the exercise area, and wherein the method further comprises providing an acoustic, visual or haptic signal by the position tracking system which comprises a piece of information about a deviation between the position of the exercise object determined using the position tracking system within the exercise area and the position of the graphical representation of the exercise object (110a - 110j) within the graphical representation of the exercise area, so that the position of the exercise object within the exercise area can be changed during set-up of the training exercise such that the position of the exercise object determined using the position tracking system within the exercise area corresponds to the position of the graphical representation of the exercise object (110a -110j) within the graphical representation of the exercise area. providing a plurality of location information for at least one movable object (120;
