WireService.ca Press Release (03/23/2016) – RightBlue Labs (RBL) is proud to announce that Racquetball Canada has chosen Logit Sport as their preferred Athlete Monitoring System. After learning about Logit during the Petro Canada Sport Leadership Conference in Winnipeg late last year and conducting thorough due-diligence, the executives at Racquetball Canada were convinced that this was the right system for their athletes.
“Elite athletes are serious about their sport and continuously face the challenge of physical and mental burnout while playing at the highest competitive level. Racquetball athletes are no exception,” said Dan Shkolnik, Director of Business Development at RBL. “We are honored that Racquetball Canada has chosen us to help take their athletes to the next level and improve their performance with minimal injuries.”
RightBlue Labs has been able to successfully reduce both training and match time missed due to injury, illness and burnout by 23% with their committed clients. Their efforts in improving athlete monitoring and providing valuable insights that coaches and support staff can quickly act on are paying off. Racquetball Canada is the latest of multiple Canadian National Sport Organizations that are using Logit to monitor athletes. Other clients employing this system include club and university teams that are part of various sports and athlete performance centres.
“We were having challenges with consistency of receiving timely information from athletes and coaches and knowing that the athletes were training their plans while not over-training and ensuring proper recovery,” said Geri Powell, Administrator of High Performance and Sport Development. “Logit will assist both the athletes and coaches by ensuring proper training is completed, monitored, and red flags are addressed right away.”
In today’s environment, Athlete Monitoring Systems are key for improving athlete performance in order to reduce injury and burnout. With the help of such systems, athletes can reach their full potential.
