Testimonials

I have been using SPT for the past 3 years and it has been brilliant to support players and coaching staff alike in a multitude of areas. Development of sessions, managing workloads, and game analysis to name a few.

It’s a key decision-making tool as well as a motivator for the players. It assists the coaching staff to individually assess player performance and provide evidence-based feedback to the players, enhancing their development and engagement in themselves and also in the game.

The real-time and post training/game feedback of the SPT program has helped us make in-game adjustments, design and implement sessions, and alter individual training or recovery days.

The college soccer schedule is a compressed format of trainings, games, and travel that can be gruelling on the body. The physical demands of this type of season on our players can put them at risk of injury if not monitored correctly.

The SPT program gives our coaches, staff, and athletic trainers the ability to access and evaluate each players’ daily workload to ensure their health and safety. In addition, the user friendly app and platform allows our players to access, understand, and comprehend their own data for accountability and self-monitoring purposes.

The GameTraka program has been like an extra assistant coach and we are excited to continue our partnership with SPT.

As a highly competitive Division I program, we are always striving to be at the top of the league and to get the most out of our players. SPT was extremely instrumental in helping us manage our players and providing us with information to help us make informed decisions.

In addition, the easy to use software and data helped give us a well rounded picture of players, practices, and games. SPT is a great resource for any program looking to be more effective and efficient.

SPT has been a terrific way for our program to better execute player daily and weekly loads and maximise individual performance.

It has been integral to our training periodisation, recovery, and overall fitness. Even though we have only been using the system for a year, we already feel like we have gathered a lot of important data and information. We are excited to continue using it in the coming years to longitudinally track the progress and evolution of our program.

The hardware is high quality and durable, and the software is user friendly and easy to navigate. There is a lot of quality data that comes out of each session, but not so much that it is overwhelming. Any staff member or player can quickly gather the relevant information they need from the data, without being overwhelmed by it.

It is also the most cost-effective product on the market, with a high quality support staff who is always willing to help. We couldn’t recommend SPT enough!

The affordability, user friendly functionality, and player access to the data make the SPT system a realistic solution for college programs looking to apply modern sport science principles to their program. 

As we all know, the college season is very dense, so having access to this data is important for helping support player health and optimizing performance. But having quick and easy access to the data is also hugely important for us coaches, given how busy we are and how quickly things move in season. We can access and analyze data in mere minutes. 

While the SPT system provides all of this, we have also found the sales and support staff to be very easy to work with and very accommodating. They are proactive with their communication and always prompt and helpful when we have questions or need support.

I’ve found SPT to be easy to use and easy to integrate into our weekly training program.  

A big challenge for any coach is to match data with a coach’s own instinct or “smell test.”  Our GPS and GameTraka software make this process transparent and easy to apply on a player by player basis.

With the way the High School Soccer calendar has changed over the years, the health of the athlete throughout the season has become paramount. At Newport Harbor we were looking for ways to make sure our athletes were staying healthy while being able to reach peak performance on game day.

SPT sports tracking system was a way to be able to give us the data we needed to reach our goal of Health vs. Performance. The data we received about each individual player after every training session and match gave us the direction and knowledge we required to make decision about the team. SPT's data helped us plan training sessions in regards to intensity and athlete load.

During matches, our starting line ups and substitutions were based upon the information the tracking devices gave us about each player. During the season that we used the SPT tracking system we had no soft tissue injuries and no season ending injuries. 

After every training session and match the players always asked when the data would be uploaded as the software gave immediate feed back to each individual player. SPT provides so much data the players bought in because the data is specific and useful for their own knowledge. 

For any team looking for an edge or to simply keep their athletes healthy through injury prevention; the SPT tracking devices and software will provide everything a coaching staff will need to reach those goals.

Before SPT, we were using another top company for the past 5 years but once we saw what SPT had to offer it was hard to turn down SPT’s superior device. It is the least invasive for our athletes and provides all of the necessary data we are looking for and gives our program an advantage over other teams.

SPT provides us real time data to be able to adjust what we need to stay ahead of the game. We were able to successfully manage and inform our players of the data we were collecting. I definitely recommend SPT to other top level coaches who want to use data driven methods to win.

This year we completed our 7th consecutive Trinity League Championship and won the CIF Southern Section Division 1 Championship. We also competed in the toughest schedule in the country. SPT provided us the information we needed to be able to prepare to win. THANK YOU!

With the rigours of a college soccer season, the SPT program has given us the ability to accurately assess the demands on our athletes and ensure that we are measuring their workloads accurately on a daily basis.

This program allows us to give our athletes some great information that directly impacts their output on the field with a user-friendly format they can access from their phone. SPT has been an enormous benefit to both the staff and the athletes at North Dakota Soccer!

This season we’ve been using the SPT platform for GPS data on all the players. It’s been an invaluable tool for Galway Football Club. 

We've been able to create a pattern for the season on each of the players and with the data, we can see when a player may have an off day or dip in performance.

For the players, the SPT’s have brought a bit of competition to the group and they see how they can get the most out of each other. It definitely has put the standards of the team higher.

What is particularly beneficial about SPT is the tracking of player movements and the data it provides throughout game and training scenarios.

The coaching staff and myself were able to make really strong informed decisions about the structure of the team, the rotation of players and injury management. 

The game performance analysis has been outstanding and has given the coaches valuable insights into the work rate of the players. Having the SPT GPS system has helped our performance not only on the field but at training too. The players are competitive to reach higher levels and consistently better their key metric results.

For coaching purposes the stats allow me to plan out better suited trainings which ultimately keep the girls fit but also ready to get the best results during games.

We capture two lots of data. The first lot we look at is how many kilometres [players] cover at training and after games. We use that data to work out whether we are giving the players too much load or not enough load and try to ensure optimal performance.

One of the main reasons we use this data is for our FFA cup games. Sometimes we will play three games in seven days. We want to make sure we get our players’ loading right so they are not at risk of injury for the next week.

The other time we use the data is for the players' rehabilitation. We will take them through a 5-stage return-to-training protocol. We capture their data so we can make sure that by stage 5 (before they go back to play) they can cover that 5-6km mark they usually cover at training.

SPT has been a Godsend for our program. The information we get from the units has made a huge impact on how we run our practices.

Without a doubt, the money we spent on the SPT units is the best money we have spent in the 15 years our program has been around. The information we get has been truly transformational.

We can not stress enough the impact that SPT has had on our program in a short period of time. There is not a single product that will have a bigger impact on your program.

SPT is simple to use while also being affordable. Having only used the trackers for one fall season, we are excited to continue to utilise it going forward and learn how it can positively affect our spring training.

The amount of data that the trackers provide is informative without being overwhelming. They also serve as a motivator for players, as they knew that their hard runs, sprints, etc. were being tracked and compared to teammates within the same position.

This system is worth every penny, and the customer service is top notch.

We used the SPT system from the beginning of the season, tracking training and games. When we compared stats at the start of the year to the end of the year we saw an improvement in every player.

We were undefeated throughout the season and half of the squad were picked up for NPL teams next season. We found that the live data on the GameTraka app really helped us during games to sub the right players on at the right time and know when a player is lacking effort.

Overall the SPT system has worked perfectly for us all season.

The introduction of the SPT GPS technology generated a very positive impact on all the players, having knowledge of so many individual factors allow them to constantly challenge themselves and drives them to improve day by day.

The data of each player helps us to make many decisions. For example, adjusting the intensity of the sessions and generating recovery strategies, taking into account the position of each player and the demands on the player within our game system. We relate the data obtained with other factors such as the age of the player, their injury history, the number of games played, the stage of the season (pre-season or regular season) and the importance of the next game compared to others.

We've had a very good experience working with SPT's technology. From the very beginning the staff at SPT has been very involved and helpful through the experimentation stages for me.

This has been a wonderful season thus far using our SPT GPS tracking devices. Very simple and easy to use and apply data on a daily basis.

SPT has helped us track the loads our players are experiencing and how much they are doing during games and training. We have been able to modify training in ways that I would have never been able to without the technology. 

We design loads/time/rest based on where the players are with their loading and how much effort they have put in. We can then load players appropriately in those sessions. The metrics have been very useful and fits right into how we want to evaluate our players within our style of play.

We have a had a great experience. Great staff that focuses on customer service. Always helpful and just a call away. Highly recommended!

The game performance analysis from SPT has been outstanding and has given the coaches valuable insights into the work rate of the players. The SPT2 live data has helped the players stay engaged in performance for the whole 90 mins of the game.

The price and the simplicity of the software is well suited for any division. Eastern Lions have shown a huge improvement in season 2019 with results but also most importantly, have been able to use the SPT units to help players stay on the park injury free and become fitter, stronger and more competitive.

The Eastern Lions Football Club would recommend SPT for any team wanting to climb up the ladder.

Sports Performance Tracking supplied our junior girls team GPS monitors which they found extremely helpful to understand important stats. The monitors are easy to put on and the girls had no problem wearing them. The data is easy to locate and ultimately pushes them to strive for more! I highly recommend SPT technology as it completely compliments athletic performance!

 

VSS is for me a great addition to the Gametraka system, it has provided a much easier way for us to compare player and teams stats across the different KPIs as well as enabling us to produce reports quickly and easily.

The addition of player readiness reports allowing us to graph performance in the various KPIs over an extended period provides a simple and powerful way to monitor a player. The player readiness feature is one I look forward to seeing develop over time. The promise of further development of VSS as a whole will I feel set SPT apart from other providers and will allow coaches who aren’t Sport Scientists to get the best value out of their GPS units.

The SPT GPS trackers are an excellent tool for measuring your top athletes against the rest of the players. Players can be held accountable for not giving maximum effort.

Psychologically, the players react positively when they turn their tracker on and go to work. They know they’re being tracked so they give that little extra effort.
SPT GPS has definitely aided our team’s development and took us up another level. It was also a great learning tool for the staff that aids in practice and game planning and decisions.

With the support of sponsors and the club SPT was purchased last December. We will use them for the preparation of the new season and in games to improve the players performance.

Especially distance covered, sprints and the intensity metrics are interesting for me in studying improvement. The data tracking on Gametraka and the mobile App is reliable and easy to use.

The SPT unit is incredible for amateur and elite athletes. Have used the device locally and internationally.

The stats allowed me to fine tune my training and improve in vital areas. Great service from the team as well.

We have been working with SPT for a almost half a year to manage, evaluate and compare the running qualities of our players. We are very happy with the comfort of wearing the vests and units as well as with the visual realisation of the monitored data in Gametraka. We can really recommend the use of Sport Performance Tracking!

Wir arbeiten seit fast einem Jahr mit Sport Performance Tracking zur Steuerung, Einschätzung und zum Vergleich der läuferischen Qualitäten unserer Spieler. Wir sind mit dem Tragekomfort des Trackingsenders und der visuellen Aufbereitung der erfassten Daten sehr zufrieden. Wir können Sport Performance Tracking nur empfehlen!

We have used SPT for almost a year and are very pleased. It is easy and efficient to upload the team’s performance data. Each player has their own app where they can monitor their own training.

The players feedback is that the SPT device is small and easy, making it comfortable to wear during workouts. The Gametraka system easily gives me the data I want in a simple way.

We have seen and tried different GPS systems and prefer SPT for the data it provides and its favourable price. It has become an important part of our training to control the load of each individual player. SPT has helped us make one of our best seasons for many years.

Being such an explosive sport, soccer players are placed under extreme pressure every time they take the field. SPT provides a program to objectively and accurately quantify training and game days at an individual and team level.

This system is absolutely key to maximising athletic performance and minimising injury.

We literally look at 2-3 metrics on a weekly basis and use those simple stats to make decisions for our players. It's simple really; based on what this player is required to do on the weekend (physically) has he/she done too little or too much during training?

Without the ability to measure running stats, how on earth would a coach or athlete know whether they're doing too much or too little? SPT gives me, as a coach, the information I need to decide whether we're on track during the training week.

This is our second year using SPT as a vital training and measurement tool for our program on a daily basis. Not only can we track workload, intensity, mileage etc. to increase fitness and to monitor overtraining, we can use it during injury rehabilitation.

No longer do our athletes need to rely on their intrinsic feelings towards injury rehab, we have numbers to prove that they are back and fully fit again.
I 100% believe that without SPT we wouldn’t have made the progress we have over the past 24 months and we are now looking forward to another great season!

In an effort to improve the quality of training, Alianza Petrolera acquired 25 units [of the SPT device]. This places the club at the forefront of technology in football training.

SPT is a fundamental tool in the training process since it allows us to monitor the daily workloads and thus control the individual impact of the training. The use of the device is very simple, with a very practical and intuitive software that services physical preparation and the prevention of injuries.

Being able to use SPT’s technology has enabled the Physiotherapists at Optimus Health to work closely with our Sports Science Team and help to reduce soft tissue injuries over the 2016/17 season

We have managed to use the GPS data to give feedback to coaches about important data and load variables, including acute-chronic ratios and flagging players when their loads are not in a ‘sweet spot’.

We started working with SPT before the start of our 2016/17 football season. We have now been working with them for a full year and during this time, I can confirm that they have been nothing short of brilliant in supporting us at the Academy.

Derry City have been using SPT for nearly 2 years now. The units are lightweight yet durable and the GameTraka system is user-friendly. SPT has offered us great support and are constantly evolving, allowing us to have input into the system improvements.

GameTraka has become an essential part of our football program. We dipped our toes in and started with 3 units but demand and interest from the players themselves soon saw us equipping the whole team. They have all both bought into the benefits as individuals but also the data is giving everyone a strong vision of expectations and possibility of results.

We have baseline figures for all positions now, expectations of efforts and performance levels that they can often see reflected in actual match results. The extra level of competition has encouraged the team to improve their personal best and prove that they deserve a starting spot. Using SPT has been fun for the players and also invaluable in their progression. Simple to use, reliable and, especially with the new “Report” feature great to share and analyze, I cannot envisage running a competitive team without the units ever again.

SPT Sport GPS units have been a great product for our club here at Sorrento FC, W.A Perth. As a club, we brought in these GPS units to help us take the next step in understanding our players training loads and game loads better throughout the season.

This season, the data that the GPS units have given us has been incredible - not just in understanding distance covered but by being able to analyse players' speeds (km/hr) and what zones they travel most in during a game. They also help us with the players who are coming back from injury by making sure they get back to their optimal performance before being included in the starting 11 again. We do this by analysing previous data while comparing recent results the player has clocked up.

I would recommend this product to any sporting team or individual who wants to understand their performance better, giving them the knowledge on which aspects of their game they may need to improve on.

We have been using the SPT GPS system at Gold Coast City FC for half a season now and it is really starting to provide some valuable information to myself as the head coach, the staff and the players as well.

I can use the information to track physical match performance and training loading, which can be helpful in injury prevention. The players also like to be aware of their stats which can only enhance their understanding of what we do and why.
