The partner deal, which began two years ago, will see the club continue to be provided with a range of cutting-edge technology that will help to assist and analyse players’ performances across Munster Rugby.
The top-of-the-range technology provided by Currys is a vital resource for Munster Rugby’s performance staff as they help to prepare the province’s players and coaches for the season-defining moments that lie ahead. This technology includes:
The latest iMac computers and MacBook’s to support the team’s coaches’ video analysis for training and Game Review as well as opposition scout prep; large screen QNED LG TVs with the latest in display technology to provide an optimum viewing experience for In Game live review; and top of the range videography equipment including Go Pros Action cameras and DJI Mavic Drone to capture training from multiple angles so players and coaching staff can use it to review aspects of their performance.
