StatSports launches GPS sports bra for women’s football

StatSports has launched its first smart health connected GPS sports bra, intended for female footballers.

For the uninitiated, StatSports tracks and analyzes performance on the soccer field. The Apex Athlete Series is its mainstream product. It offers individuals and amateur teams the same type of information that elite sports teams obsess over.

Anyone who has watched the end of a Premier League match or Premier League football match will have seen elite players wearing the iconic bra; which allows sports scientists to examine the details of performance.

This meant that all players had to wear a unisex sports vest and, if you’re a female player, a sports bra as well; until now. StatSports has finally launched a specialized sports bra for women. This smart bra offers better support and comfort; while providing the same statistics and analysis.

The StatSports bra completely replaces the unisex vest. It is shaped for a better fit and has adaptable cups, which seems essential. The StatSports Apex pod then slides into the vest. Which allows users to track 16 key metrics.

These measures include, for example, maximum speed, high-speed running, high-intensity distance, step balance, sprints and stress load.

With the commercial take-off of women’s football (the Women’s Super League saw an increase of 5.9 million viewers in 2023), it is good that young players playing the sport locally or in professional teams now have clothing suitable and comfortable.
