STATSports APEX Athlete Series GPS Soccer Activity Tracker Stat Sports Football Performance Vest Wearable Technology Adult Small + Academy Access

Product Information

Starting in 2017, they developed what appears to also be another calf motion sensor with accelerometers and gyroscope, except it also houses a GPS module. Get real visibility into their achievements and areas of improvement and start a conversation that brings you closer together. The information they record allows backroom staff to judge a player’s performance objectively, rather than relying on subjective assessments that can be flawed and biassed. For example, if a footballer/soccer player used a GPS sports tracker during a game, the GPS sports tracker would provide a map of where the footballer spent most of their time.

Four of them are worn on the calf (near the knee and usually at the back of the calf) and the other three at worn at the feet (either inside the soccer boot or attached to the soccer boot). Our technology is proven at all levels of football, playing a pivotal role in leagues like the Premier League, Bundesliga, La Liga, and many more. Get an objective feedback and immediately obtain information about your kid’s technical and physical skills, designed to adjust and improve their performance.Metrics captured include Total Distance, Max Speeds, High Speed Running, Intensity and Strain levels. I will cover the hardware, how each one works, what metrics they capture, and their availability and I will do an overall comparison at the end. It is important that we collect information on all sessions and games that the players are involved in; failure to do so for one session can affect the overall data picture for the player.

Analytics: Through the metrics of every player, the system provides a profile of each individual player rating them according to their skills, technique, power, endurance, performance and development progress. Most footballer/soccer players wear a sports vest either on top of their training gear or underneath (You sometimes notice a slight outline on the top of their back). Keeping your players on the pitch is obviously the key to winning at the top level, so that was great to hear," he says. Analytics: Based on the data collected, the app calculates for each session, overall scores in five key Skill Points (Stamina, Movement, Control, Tempo and Activity). The coaches’ app shows more team metrics and allows the coach to monitor and analyse every player’s performance over time.A few things to note about Jogo since they first launched their Kickstarter campaign is, that firstly they have cancelled their Kickstarter campaign for their insole sensors due to some major changes within their company. Their expansion has taken them into America, where they work with a host of MLS, NFL and NBA teams, and they are also branching into China. The only trouble is, while we might score the tap-in or make the easy pass, there’d be another 89 minutes to worry about. If it reduces again, maybe it’s worthwhile substituting him but you have to take into context the game as well.

From tracking individual player movements to analyzing team dynamics, we offer insights that are essential for coaches and teams striving for excellence. Unlike back-mounted wearables, this product enables further-reaching insights into performance and medical disciplines due to the position on the boot generating data on the lower limbs.

It can provide overall team performance and the ability to compare performance against professional athletes. Consider which metrics you want to measure and your individual goals, and review the above chart to get a sense of which device best fits your development plan. In this article, we have reviewed the STATSports APEX Athlete Series, the CATAPULT ONE (Formerly PLAYR) Football GPS Tracker , SOCCERBEE POD GPS Wearable Tracker and Vest and the CATAPULT PlayerTek Football GPS Tracker. With that placement of the sensor, the only data obtained is from full-body movement, not what’s going on with your feet.

You’ll have seen your favourite footballers wearing STATSports vests to measure their energy output, and now you can benefit from that level of expertise thanks to our STATSports range. Understanding the demands placed on goalkeepers is crucial for ensuring optimal performance and mitigating the risk of overuse injuries. As well as heart rate and distance covered, Sunderland use the equipment to monitor metrics such as high speed running, acceleration and deceleration.

What I have found is that all the soccer sensors will at least track the ‘ Physical‘ and ‘ Technical‘ metrics during a soccer game or training session. When budget constraints force a choice, consider whether you’ll be needing the device for indoor usage. Converting the data into heatmaps, which show the positions taken up by a player on the pitch throughout the game, are a great way of seeing if they’re regularly getting into the right positions.
