The technological revolution is changing the face of the sport

Sport is digitizing faster and faster. Artificial Intelligence influences the strategic decisions made by coaches helps to establish a strategy and develop better training programs and supports and even replaces judges. New technologies are also changing the equipment and outfits worn by athletes. This "arms race" applies to almost all sports, including football. The recently established Polish Innovation Committee in the Polish Football Association (PZPN) is responsible for implementing new IT and monitoring systems and for promoting digital transformation.

"Sport has digitized. Data collection is no longer glass and eye and basic computer systems, but something very versatile," Robert Korzeniowski, a walker, four-time Olympic champion, stressed.

Sports success is determined not only by talent and physical preparation but also by access to modern technologies. One aspect of their implementation is the refinement of athletes' equipment and outfits. Suffice it to mention the Olympic Games in Sydney in 2000 when American and Australian swimmers appeared in a revolutionary costume designed by Speedo with the help of NASA. Artificial intelligence also supports training, strategies, and refereeing. An example is the Hawk-Eye system, which helps to resolve controversial situations during the game.
