Connacht Rugby in Ireland used to have a TV and laptops to monitor play during a game and present possible improvements at half time to players. Since deploying a Ricoh interactive whiteboard, coaches no longer carry heavy and difficult-to-setup equipment. Not only does the Ricoh technology save time, it also provides a much better way to plan and present match analysis and tactics to help players improve performance on the pitch.
“It’s vital that any investment we make or piece of equipment that we use is targeted at helping players and coaches and our performance on the pitch, but also for the whole club and the wider rugby community that we serve. The Ricoh IWB is certainly making a significant difference to the way we analyse, communicate with and educate our players and that will begin to show through in success on the pitch.”
