They obsess over the rules and integrity of the fixtures we cover and the data we collect. They dive deep into the way our customers (and their customers) use our serviceDoing so helps identify new ways to help our partners deliver even better in-play experiences  

These processes drive the RunningBall product updates

  • Even faster delivery of key football (soccer) event information like possible corners and possible cards, without sacrificing any accuracy; 
  • New logic to quickly collect and report Handball ‘Challenges (similar to VAR in soccer); and 
  • New system messages to help Trading teams improve their handling of unforeseen data collection challenges for football, like yellow cards awarded during the half-time interval.
