#VR is not a new technology, but it has improved in recent times to show some exciting new applications to engage sports fans worldwide. We have looked at some examples of applications that bring sports fans closer to the action or are simply for gaming. With new platforms and applications emerging, the social and technological barriers for VR adoption are beginning to break down. This opens up incredible opportunities for sports clubs to engage with fans around the world and even create social VR experiences many miles from the stadiums. VR will continue to recreate the atmosphere and excitement of sports and will open new markets and ideas in the future. In addition, data analytics has become a major part of almost every sport in today’s day and age, and all games are no exception to that fact. Data analytics in sports games has been a major contributor to roster building and developing strategies against opponents. It also helps players understand their weaknesses and strengths and build a plan of execution based on the findings. Football analytics helps players understand opponents as well as themselves. #sportsbusiness #sportscoaching #sportsperformance #sportsfans #fanengagement #fanexperience
