Trusted partner to American Hockey League and NCAA launches
fifth LiveStats solution to capture official ice hockey data
Genius Sports Group, the global leader in digital sports content
and technology, today announces the launches of its new Ice Hockey
LiveStats solution to transform how leagues and federations
capture, manage and distribute their official data.
Ice Hockey LiveStats captures advanced team and player
statistics including face-off and shot charts, rich play-by-plays
and full box scores. Its user optimized interface and intuitive
workflows allow leagues and federations to collect fast and
accurate statistics during each game.
Since 2008, Genius Sports Group’s LiveStats solutions have been
used at over 500,000 games across basketball, volleyball, soccer
and football. Now, ice hockey leagues and federations across all
levels of the sport will be able to unlock new value from their
official data, which will allow them to enhance the fan experience,
develop new revenue streams and drive their digital
transformation.
“Delivering cutting-edge technology solutions for sports is in
our DNA," said Mark Locke, CEO of Genius Sports Group. "Our
LiveStats tools have been central to the global growth of several
sports and we’re excited to provide ice hockey leagues and
federations with proven technology that delivers fast, official
data to their fans, statisticians, coaches, broadcasters and media
partners.”
The development of Genius Sports Group’s new Ice Hockey
LiveStats solution has been accelerated by its long-term
partnership with the NCAA. NCAA LiveStats for Ice Hockey was
launched ahead of the 2020/21 season, enabling the NCAA’s members
across all three divisions to capture official match
statistics.
“The new NCAA LiveStats software for ice hockey is truly a
tremendous leap forward when it comes to analyzing the sport at all
levels. It can tell a more complete story of how a game progressed
from start-to-finish,” said Dave Walberg Assistant Director of
Athletics at UMass Boston. “I feel that their process has made the
software game ready and will be a huge tool for analyzing the sport
by fans, coaches, and communication professionals.”
