Together STATS and Prozone have created the SportVU and PROZONE3. The SportVU is a tracking system that has the ability to track positions of players and the ball 25 times a second. This tech has been used in every NBA arena for three years now and will give Corinthian coaches and the athletes some of the most specific football data in the world. The PROZONE3 uses the SportVU data to create both physical and tactical analysis of football clubs.

“We are delighted to be working with Corinthians to deliver advanced performance analysis solutions to one of the biggest clubs in world football,” said Pablo Sarinelli, Sales Manager LATAM for STATS. “The wealth of data Corinthians receives from STATS SportVU and PROZONE3 will help to inform the coaching process and bring technical and physical data into the decision-making process.”

In the past few years, STATS has been particularly active in the sports tech market. They acquired Prozone in May of 2015 and continue to bring their player tracking tech solutions to more teams.
