Technology in sportfields
The sports industry is changing rapidly. More and more technical innovations are finding their way also to football (soccer). With this survey, we want to map out how much data is used in football and where are opportunities for growth. In this study, we focus in particular on Pitch Management. We will share the results with you in a white paper: Technology in Sports Fields.
Facts:
- 91% of players belief there is a direct link between the quality of the pitch and the risk of injury.
- Canceling matches due to poor pitches costs the English Premier League more than 1 million euros every year.
- Field management can be done with 30% less use of water, energy and fertiliser.
Later this year, we will organise a data-driven Pitch Management Workshop for all participants in the Johan Cruijf ArenA. A unique insight behind the scenes in one of the most innovative stadiums in the world.
Thank you very much for your time.
