“Our Performance Analysis Department is dedicated to maximising our teams’ win potential. Technology from Currys – such as drones and Apple devices – enables our analysis team to capture multi-angle footage for both team and individual review, supporting the ongoing development of our players. During games, this tech provides coaches and sideline staff with real-time visual and data feedback, allowing us to make quick adjustments for optimal performance.”
