Dr Who loves a good kip - if he's not called to duty he's a whizz at managing Drogba in FIFA '12. Apparently he's a slick dancer and he enjoys catching butterflies

WHO WE ARE?

SportStat delivers fast, accurate and reliable sports data to the gaming industry, sports professionals and  across all media platforms. Specialising in Darts, Snooker, Rugby Union & Rugby League, SportStat are the official data collection partners to World Snooker, the Professional Darts Corporation, International Rugby Board, Rugby World Cup and many leading rugby union and league clubs.

HISTORY

Since its beginning in 2000 SportStat has played a pivotal role in the growth of interactive media. Initially the company evolved by solving challenges thrown at it. Its first aim was to improve the accuracy and speed of data available to the media within Rugby Union. In 2003 SportStat launched statRUGBY a platform which holds the records of over 100,000 players and 300,000 matches, and one that has become a primary resource for all media, broadcaster and team enquiries. The company has since diversified, growing and innovating in the fields of rugby league, snooker and darts, in addition to its central role in rugby union.

TECHNOLOGY

Key to achieving our goals has been the continued investment in not only the staff but new technology. SportStat clients can be assured that they are getting both the latest systems and value for money. All of our programmers and developers are Microsoft Certified Professionals.

THE FUTURE

SportStat are in the business of revolutionising the sports data business through the use of our lightning fast data feeds which compliment our bespoke live and archive data solutions.  Having worked in partnership with the governing bodies of rugby union, darts and snooker for many years, we are proud of our enviable position of being able to supply top class Fast Data live from venue, faster than anyone else.  

Our latest partnership with the Professional Darts Corporation is the latest in a series of initiatives helping to revolutionise the coverage and profile of a sport both to those who govern it and to our clients who want to be at the heart of the action.

Not content with resting on our laurels, SportStat has plans to roll out Fast Data services in Gaelic Games and Australian Rules Football in the future, not to mention further enhancing our spread of services in the sports we already supply.
