Key Benefits ScorePlay

At Labosport, we understand that every sports venue is unique, whether it is a top-class stadium or a community field. That’s why we work closely with you to tailor our services to meet your bespoke needs. Our team of experts will help you gain a thorough understanding of the current condition of your pitch, including the effectiveness of your maintenance practices, and adapt accordingly. With our service, you can monitor the performance of your field over time, before and after key tournaments or events, whether sporting or non-sporting.

Our platform also allows you to communicate the results to players, staff, the community, and all other stakeholders involved. Moreover, our flexible approach enables you to benchmark and compare your field with other venues, ensuring that you have access to the most up-to-date insights and data.

We understand that different sports and climatic conditions require a customized approach. That’s why we offer a fully customizable solution, enabling us to assess and provide tailored recommendations for your venue regardless of the sport or climate.

Reporting
To ensure that you have a clear understanding of the results, we provide a comprehensive executive summary that includes an overall score presented as a percentage. Our detailed executive summary is presented without any technical jargon and is accompanied by an expert interpretation that provides insight into the findings.

Our assessment includes the identification of key mechanisms that influence the properties of your field, which is presented in a detailed report and analysis of results. Our team of independent experts provides advice and proposed corrective actions based on their analysis.

We also provide a comparison of your field with other similar fields and your own field over time, utilizing our extensive database of sports fields tested around the world, including elite and community facilities, to define and guide our interpretation of findings.

Our powerful interface includes a mapping of key criteria to identify surface consistency, making it easy to spot areas of concern. The data is presented using our unique scoring system, where all parameters are weighted, ranked, and expertly assessed to derive the score on a simple and easy-to-understand ranking scale.

In summary, with ScorePlay, you can expect a comprehensive and easy-to-understand report that provides a detailed analysis of your field, expert recommendations, and comparisons with other fields, all while using a unique and powerful interface.

Criteria
Our assessment covers a range of field parameters, including surface regularity, water infiltration, moisture and irrigation, lines, run-offs, and equipment, and more.

In addition, we evaluate the agronomy of your field, which includes ground cover, thatch depth, effective root depth, ground hardness or compaction, sward color and height, insect pests & diseases, and more.

We also measure the performance and player welfare aspects of your field, including shock absorption, head impact criteria, vertical deformation, energy restitution, rotational resistance, ball roll, and ball rebound.

For baseball and cricket fields, we provide a surface speed characterization that includes pace, bounce, and uniformity.

All of these parameters are evaluated using our unique and powerful interface, which provides a detailed and easy-to-understand report, expert recommendations, and comparisons with other fields. With ScorePlay, you can be confident that you are receiving a comprehensive evaluation of your sports field that covers all the key parameters necessary for optimal performance and player welfare.

The development process of this technology took over five years, during which extensive trials were conducted to ensure that the LISPORT XL replicates the wear patterns seen on real fields. This marks a significant advancement in the field, and the industry has already embraced it as the most advanced way of producing realistic simulated patterns.

Method Advantages of LISPORT XL

• Wear pattern is ultra realistic and capable of simulating years of intensive use* within days.
• Testing duration is reduced by a factor 10 compared to traditional LISPORT (for identical sample length).
• Several systems can be tested under exact same conditions for comparative test and product development.
• Samples are more than 4m long allowing multiply tests to be performed according to existing standards (FIFA) and those under development.

The LISPORT XL is a distinctive wear simulation machine that has been carefully designed by LABOSPORT teams to provide the most authentic wear simulation of sports fields. It operates by using a guided trolley that moves across the sports surface, consisting of four elements: two freely rotating rollers fitted with particular studs and two vibrating plates fitted with a rubber sole specifically chosen to imitate sports shoes. All variables, such as trolley speed and reciprocating amplitude, have been precisely calibrated to reproduce typical wear patterns that occur in real-life scenarios.
