World Para Powerlifting Launches Dartfish.tv Channel
As part of World Para Powerlifting’s (WPPO) ongoing commitment to supporting athlete development and officiating proficiency, WPPO launched a Dartfish.tv channel earlier this month.
Dartfish TV is a video-sharing platform providing unique control over access to content and navigation, thanks to sequenced clips and powerful filters. Combined with the Dartfish analysis solution, you get powerful video analytics.
We’re incredibly excited to see the launch of our channel. We truly believe it’s going to be a gamechanger for our sport, benefiting athletes, coaches and technical officials from all over the world, from the grassroots to high performance level. “No matter a country’s size or budget, they have equal access to performance analysis.”
Jorge Moreno, Head of World Para Powerlifting “ Using Dartfish
Using Dartfish at every major competition, World Para Powerlifting films the lifts of each athlete from multiple technical angles, uploading them to the WPPO channel, the video is tagged with searchable keywords: the athlete’s name, country, bodyweight and lift decision.
With the channel launch, the WPPO educational programs will greatly benefit lifting technique. In addition, adjudication videos are already integrated into face-to-face technical officiating and coaching courses.
I use the WPPO channel during each training session. It’s an amazing tool that enables me to review and continue to refine my lifting technique.”
Sherif Osman, a 3-time Paralympic Champion from Egypt.
Using Dartfish.tv, technical officials are also able to apply their lifting judgment skills in any session and to browse content relevant to specific scenarios to better understand the correct decision making for that situation.
The WPPO channel is available to all athletes, coaches and technical officials at no cost, and is accessible anywhere with an internet connection at: www.Dartfish.tv/ParaPowerlifting
