Atlanta United:
The Sports Office Client Managers are spreading the company’s global footprint as they visit clients across the world of elite sport. They are helping clubs and organisations to implement and maximise The Sports Office performance management systems.
Senior Client Manager Carl Pomfret spent last week with Atlanta United’s Academy personnel including medical and sports science staff. He worked with them on GPS data entry processes.
Carl also met with Atlanta United Technical Director, Carlos Bocanegra, a former Fulham FC and U.S. national player. They discussed the use of The Soccer Squad. A range of automated report
building functionality was also demonstrated to staff, including options to create individual, team and key prospect reports.
Along with meeting the club’s Technical Director, Carl supported medical staff with work on seasonal reporting and assisted with the use of the ‘SOAP’ note template.
He demonstrated that the system is a powerful coaching and reporting tool as well. These reports can be automated and directly sent to coaches via email, SMS or through The Manager’s App.
Atlanta United are currently in the Semi-Finals of the MLS Audi Cup Play-Offs, after beating their fellow Sports Office rival New York City FC 1-0 in the first round of the playoffs. The second and knock out round will be this Sunday, 11/11/18 at 10 pm GMT.
Smyrna Soccer Club:
The Sports Office has also recently begun working to pilot the system at a grass-roots level with Smyrna Soccer Club in Atlanta, Georgia. The club focuses their use of the system to enhance player health and safety, minimise risk and maximise player development.
Smyrna Soccer Club is using the system to provide each player with daily feedback including reports on matches, training and stats on focused targets and goals. Carl Pomfret met with Director of Coaching, Jon Conway and Academy Director, Joey Syfret to help to ensure the system is maximising the potential of these young players.
