“Sonda were quick to respond to our query when searching for GPS units. The Manager wanted training monitored every day, so that we can develop the player’s fitness in the most professional way possible,” he said.

“The GPS and heart rate monitors provided by Sonda will undoubtedly help us to achieve this and we would like to thank them for the professionalism in delivering their service.”

Marketing and PR Manager for Sonda Sports, Karol Klosiewicz added: “The statistics which are derived from our GPS monitors will allow Sol and his team to access the best data for monitoring player performance and also mitigating injury risks.

“Our partnership with Macclesfield Town excites us greatly and we are pleased to be able to help the club as they battle to preserve their EFL status.”
