Story Highlights
DVSport has struck a new commercial partnership with Genius Sports to power their instant replay and coaching tools with live college sports data.
DVSport’s officiating replay solutions have been used in over 10,000 collegiate football games and 15,000 collegiate basketball games to support officiating decisions with broadcast-quality video. Genius Sport’s official data feeds will streamline the workflows behind DVSport’s officiating technology, instantly identifying key plays that need to be reviewed and automatically pairing it with simultaneous multi-angle video clips.
Conference partners of DVSport will further benefit from this new partnership with Genius Sports, using official play-by-play data and integrated video to streamline how they evaluate officials’ performance post-game across all available sports.
Genius Sports is the exclusive distributor of official NCAA data, the fastest, most accurate and richest data source on college sports. It is captured by NCAA LiveStats, the official tool for the collection, management and distribution of game statistics, that is used across more than 65,000 games a year for NCAA basketball, football, ice hockey, volleyball and soccer.
This partnership will also enhance DVSport’s tech on the bench coaching tools, combining official data and statistics with live and preloaded video to help teams analyze every play.
“Enhancing in-game and post-game video with the official data provided by Genius Sports will benefit all stakeholders immensely,” says Brian Lowe, President and CEO of DVSport. “From in-game DVSport Replay to Rewind bench video solutions for the players and coaches, to the officials’ breakdown of the game after it is over, DVSport’s partnership with Genius Sports is a great step forward across all sports.”
“Together, high quality data and video can power outstanding solutions for officials, coaches, fans, broadcasters and much more,” says Matthew Cowling, EVP, Sport & Partnerships of Genius Sports. “We’re excited to partner with DVSport, enhancing their proven officiating and coaching solutions with the highest quality data across the entire college sports calendar.”
