SAXTONS RIVER, VT (October 15, 2020) <\/strong>\u2013 PlaySight is excited to add yet another NEPSAC prep program to the fold, welcoming in Vermont Academy as the latest SmartSchool. Vermont Academy is also the fourth Lakes Region League program to add PlaySight. The Wildcats will be installing two PlaySight Pro fixed systems \u2014 one at their hockey rink and one in their gym \u2014 as well as a portable PlaySight GO system, which they plan to use across many different sports. The school plans to not only support the development of its athletic programs, but also offer a viable solution for fans, parents and recruits to continue to engage via live-streaming with many of the 20+ sports played amidst the attendance and spectator restrictions imposed by the current COVID-19 scenario.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Vermont Academy\u2019s Director of Technology, Jeff Gaudet<\/strong>, speaks of the importance of maximizing PlaySight\u2019s OTT network (the PlaySight Sports Network) capabilities to continue to connect the school with its community.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of the main reasons that we decided on investing in PlaySight is that athletics at Vermont Academy are a big part of our community. With the current environment and restrictions, we are not able to have spectators at our sporting events.We needed a reliable system that would allow community members to still be able to see our sporting events.\u201dCoaches at Vermont Academy are also excited to utilize PlaySight\u2019s versatility.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Boys’ Basketball Head Coach Alex Popp<\/strong> sees PlaySight as a key factor in \u201ccollege placement efforts, alumni engagement, and recruiting purposes,\u201d and also a great way to \u201cprovide access to our most valued stakeholders.\u201d\u00a0 While Girls Hockey Head Coach Chris Ardito<\/strong> agrees that<\/p>\n

\u201cPlaySight\u2019s live streaming will help with the uncertainty around fans and recruits attending games or practices this upcoming year in a really big way. It\u2019s going to allow our parents from all over to enjoy watching their kids play. It\u2019s also going to provide a level of connection potential players can have with our team. They\u2019ll be able to watch us play and see where they\u2019ll fit in, as well as watch our practices and see what we do that will help them develop\u201d.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

PlaySight\u2019s Sales Manager Matt Gibson<\/strong> is excited to bring PlaySight to another leading prep program.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are extremely proud to power Vermont Academy athletics as their live streaming and video partner. They join Brewster Academy, St. Paul\u2019s and Proctor Academy as our fourth partner in the Lakes Region NEPSAC league and compete at the highest levels of prep athletics.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
