RIYADH: The Saudi Arabian Football Federation has announced a partnership with the CIES Football Observatory to launch a SAFF-based online research platform for the men’s professional game.
The collaboration agreement will allow CIES Football Observatory to create and develop a platform that will include competitions’ data on demographics, and technical and physical performance covering players, clubs, leagues, and national teams.
The platform will allow the federation and its technical division to generate reports on player statistics and performances, and provide decisions on development for Saudi footballers, particularly at grass roots.
Since the SAFF’s launch of its long-term strategy in 2021, technology has been one of the pillars of its development, and the federation will look to devote more time and resources to improve its technological capabilities.
The CIES Football Observatory is a research group within the International Center for Sports Studies, an independent study center located in Neuchatel, Switzerland.
It specializes in the statistical analysis of football, with the aim of advancing the frontiers of knowledge for the sustainable development of the game around the world.
