The four-year deal, which covers the club’s first team and academy players, will see Dundalk FC leverage Catapult’s in-house sports scientists and best-in-class technology to track and improve team performance.
Catapult will provide GPS devices for Dundalk FC coaches to monitor players during matches and training. The device helps measure player workload, which informs coaches about who is in an optimal state to play and those requiring rest.
Established in 2006, Catapult works with more than 4,200 elite teams in over 100 countries worldwide.
“We sought additional support to track and enhance our team’s athletic performance, and that’s where Catapult came in,” said Dundalk FC owner Brian Ainscough.
“I want to personally thank the entire team at Catapult, who worked closely with myself and the staff to bring the best solution to our club.
“We look forward to working closely with Catapult to elevate Dundalk FC’s performance in the coming seasons.”
“We are thrilled to announce our partnership with Dundalk FC,” said Will Lopes, CEO at Catapult.
“Our innovative athlete monitoring solutions will help redefine how Dundalk FC teams approach key decisions on athlete performance.”
