The Best Athlete Monitoring Systems for Football Clubs & Academies: Features, Pricing & Benefits
The Future of Athlete Monitoring: User-Friendly & Affordable
Most Athlete Monitoring Systems (AMS) today are complex, expensive, and require specialists to operate. However, a new generation of amateur and youth teams is seeking a simple, affordable, and mobile-friendly solution that tracks player stats and builds a video portfolio of matches and players.
That's why in mid-2025, we’re launching the Mingle Sport Athlete Monitoring System, built on top of our existing Team Boost products.
