In order to ensure its teams have the best facilities to achieve sporting success, forward-thinking FC Sudtirol has invested in a brand-new centre for its team; opening the FCS Centre in Appiano, Italy.

The centre, which comprises a service building and a range of natural and artificial pitches, also features a modern and engaging technology platform to allow the delivery of communications messaging, video on demand and live streams.

Tripleplay’s digital signage features throughout the centre, which has a capacity of 47.3m2.

The technology specialists’ IPTV and digital signage platform has been deployed in staff offices, media suites, meeting and board rooms, the club retail shop, gymnasium, changing and locker rooms, and all communal areas for players and staff to relax.

Through the use of Tripleplay’s digital signage platform, FC Sudtirol is now able to offer a more visible and attractive advertising medium for its sponsors and partners; enhancing their presence within the club and maximising the benefits they get from their relationship with the team.

The team is also able to use Tripleplay’s TripleVOD video on demand software to utilise performance through distribution of highlights, tactical analysis, and individual statistics to any digital signage endpoint.

Italian technology distributor 3P Technologies advised the football team on how they could create a platform that would grow with the team.

Rosaria Califano, system engineer at 3P Technologies was delighted with the outcome. He says: “We have chosen to adopt the Tripleplay platform for its modularity and scalability.

“We have evaluated very positively that the system, working on IP in the same network, can be remotely controlled for simple and fast maintenance – a service that is always highly appreciated by our customers.”
