National athletic training facilities improved with Smartracks technology
CLARK FREEPORT---The 30th South East Asian (SEA) Games is less than a year away, and people from across the region are looking forward to the biennial event. As the host of this edition of the games, the
Philippines is hard at work in preparing to stage an unforgettable event that raises the bar for the future editions of the Games.
In the hustle and bustle of these preparations, it is easy to overlook the very foundation of such an event: the athletes. Across the country, our national athletes sacrifice much of their time to better themselves and improve their performance, not just for their own gain but for the glory of our country. As they continue to give their all for the Philippines, it is imperative that we as a nation give them the support that they deserve.
With this, MTD Philippines, Inc., the 30th SEA Games’ infrastructure developer, aims to enhance the training conditions of our national athletes by installing SmarTracks technology in the new training facilities in New Clark City. SmarTracks, the first of its kind in athletic performance tracking technology, enables athletes and coaches to record and document vital data on team and individual performances in real time. Using state-of-the-art sensor technology and a mobile application, SmarTracks eliminates the need for manual performance tracking by instantly providing the necessary information to help our athletes monitor their progress and adapt their training more efficiently.
MTD Philippines, Inc. introduced SmarTracks to our national athletes, coaches, and concerned training committees on January 29, at the Philippine Sports Complex in Pasig City. Members of the athletic team were also invited to participate in a live demonstration
