James Madison University and North Carolina State University are the two latest schools to form partnerships with Kinduct, a leading data and analytics software provider, that will help the medical staffs, coaching staffs and athletes with additional information.
JMU and NC State join schools like Louisville in this partnership, with the Cardinals and Kinduct joining forces back in 2016.
Through collecting and analyzing a set of data points, Kinduct’s Athlete Management System (AMS) technology can allow for coaches to make decisions regarding their athlete’s performance, injury mitigation and recover as well as how to prepare for their next competitor.
At NC State, the technology will be used in all Olympic sports.
“Having an intuitive monitoring platform, the supports our existing process, will help achieve our goals,” Nate Brookerson, NC State director of Strength and conditioning of Olympic sports, said in a statement. “Kinduct’s platform expands our capabilities to collect, manage and utilize our student performance data in a meaningful way. The coaching staff is excited to introduce the Kinduct platform this upcoming academic year, and see the results.”
“We are thrilled to have Kinduct on board and working with our programs. This partnership will assist us in our mission to foster a student-athlete centered community of professionals that communicates and collaborates to ensure the health, safety and general well-being of the JMU student-athletes, while maximizing the development of their athletic performance and pursuit of championships,” JMU Associate A.D. for Integrated Health and Sports Performance Tom Kuster said in a statement. “Kinduct’s platform will expand our capabilities to manage our student-athletes and their performance data. As a new school year approaches, we look forward to delivering Kinduct’s AMS to our athletes and staff in an effort to set them up for success.”
