Bridging The Athlete Performance Gap

Quantify the Physical Demands of Contact Sport

While GPS wearable devices are effective in capturing athlete physiological data related to distance covered, top speed, and acceleration/deceleration, a key missing measurement in understanding the physical demands of an athlete in contact sport is the accurate measurement of collisions. Prevent's Collision Workload metric calculates total collision-related work (KE) for a given day of activity. This workload can be used to manage athlete exposure related to collisions, and drive intelligent decisions surrounding practice scheduling and athlete recovery.

Athlete Technique

A Data-Driven Approach to Evaluating Technique

Evaluating the technique of an athlete should go well-beyond missed tackles and poor blocks. Prevent's precise impact location measurement provides stakeholders with important insights surrounding an athlete's head positioning upon contact. Identify data trends that will help athletes not only avoid exposure-related injuries but place athletes in the best position to make plays. Integrate head impact data with film to provide a holistic view to technique evaluation.

Find a Competitive Advantage

Utilize Analytics to Tackle Tough Questions

Coaches are commonly faced with difficult decisions surrounding how to structure efficient contact practices. If you overwork athletes in practices, they are not fresh for games. However, pulling back the reigns on basic tackling and blocking fundamentals in practice can leave athletes unprepared for live contact. Prevent establishes athlete collision baselines that can help coaches understand the exposure their athletes are experiencing in different practice environments and how that compares to game day. The Prevent Practice Scheduling Tool integrates head impact data with your practice schedule and categorizes data based on practice drills, equipment used, duration of practice, and other important parameters.

Data Integration

Export Data with the Click of a Button

Prevent understands that a holistic approach is necessary when analyzing the total workload of an athlete. The Prevent Web Portal data export feature allows practitioners to quickly pull impact data for further integration. Accurate timestamps on each recorded impact allows for easy integration with other wearable devices.
