"We're thrilled to be working with Fulham FC - one of the most accomplished and storied football clubs in the English Premier League - helping to bring innovation to how medical and performance data and analytics are being leveraged across the entire organization to inform strategy and decision-making with objective, analytics-based insights," said Stephen Smith, CEO and Founder of Kitman Labs.

"The traditional approach to simply collecting medical and performance data will no longer suffice.  We needed a single system that combines diverse sets of data across the organization. One that ensures accuracy of information, allows the information to be shared and utilized in real time, and supports planning and player health and development with actionable insights" said Chris Hanson, Head of Medical, Fulham FC.

"Our recent transition to the Kitman Labs Intelligence Platform has allowed us to continue to improve and manage the processes relating to the capture, cleaning, enrichment, and analysis of our football related data. It's continued to support our evolving commitments to interrogating data, interpreting results, and creating data-led insights and stories.
