Fulham FC has announced a new partnership with global enterprise software platform KitmanLabs.
Kitman Labs, a centralised operating system for performance intelligence in sports, will work with the Premier League side on medical and performance data.
As per the agreement, the West London football club will utilise Kitman Labs’ performance medicine, performance optimization and coaching & development solutions which combine ‘medical, performance and talent development data into a single, interactive data and analytics system.’
Stephen Smith, CEO and Founder of Kitman Labs, said,“We’re thrilled to be working with Fulham FC – one of the most accomplished and storied football clubs in the English Premier League – helping to bring innovation to how medical and performance data and analytics are being leveraged across the entire organization to inform strategy and decision-making with objective, analytics-based insights.
Chris Hanson, Head of Medical, Fulham FC, added, “The traditional approach to simply collecting medical and performance data will no longer suffice. We needed a single system that combines diverse sets of data across the organization. One that ensures accuracy of information, allows the information to be shared and utilized in real time, and supports planning and player health and development with actionable insights.
The new deal with Fulham expands KitmanLabs’ football partnership roster, which also includes Bayer Leverkusen, Chelsea FC, Liverpool FC and Sporting Lisbon.
