Bologna first club in Italy to use STATS Media Solutions

STATS LLC, world-leading supplier of sports data and technology, is powering Bologna FC’s new website. The site, launched on the 26th May, is benefiting from statistics provided by the company on players and teams in Serie A.

Having already relied on STATS-Prozone for professional services since 2015, Bologna has now become the first TIM Serie A club to use the company’s data provision to enrich its own multimedia content. STATS SportVU player tracking technology, already the official tracking tool of the NBA, will be used from this season in Serie A to aid visual graphics in televised sport and to provide the statistical story of every match.

STATS’ hosting solutions and Serie A statistics will be used to complete the already detailed sports section on the Bologna website and will therefore encourage fans to get involved by making data for the whole competition easily accessible on the new site. “Bologna FC 1909 is one of the most important clubs in Italy, with a great history and ambitious projects for the future”, commented Tommaso Refini, STATS’ Media Business Development Manager in Italy. “We are delighted to contribute to the club’s new official website with data collected by STATS on the players and teams in Serie A just as we have been with providing the club’s coaching staff with technical support through the professional Prozone wing of our business.”
