The tournament held in San Sebastián ended on July 9th and was a great success. Hundreds of teams competed to reach the finals, in which OLIVER was chosen to be the GPS technology to measure athletes’ performance metrics.
A historic number: 865 teams in 17 categories
This edition of the Donosti Cup brought together thousands of people of all ages, levels, and different corners of the world. All of them gathered in San Sebastián which hosted football matches, ceremonies, spaces like the Fan Zone, and much more.
Additionally, tournaments like the "Donosti Masters Cup", where veteran teams – both men and women – participated, and the "Donosti Authentics Cup", a competition for the teams formed by players with intellectual disabilities, were held as well.
OLIVER was used in all the finals, in both men’s and women’s football
While many teams and players used OLIVER devices throughout the tournament, all those who reached the finals were able to access their metrics thanks to the GPS technology placed on their legs. Many young players used the GPS in this manner for the first time, therefore experiencing professional treatment similar to that in senior football.
In the end, Futbolfem, Mundaiz Ikastetxea, Benfica, Sporting Clube Portugal, Top Tec, CSF, Domus Barcelona, United 13, Sant Berger, Madrid CFF, PA Team, Brain Football, Academia Manchester, and Atlétic Sant Just became champions of the Donosti Cup in this edition.
More and more clubs, academies, and youth tournaments are using OLIVER to measure metrics of their players. Low cost, easy operation, and interactive interface are some of the reasons for OLIVER’s popularity in Spanish youth football. In addition, gamification is another key aspect that makes OLIVER a perfect solution for youth football, both for individual players and teams or tournaments.
Teams and academies such as Racing de Santander, Sporting de Gijón, Barça Academy, Real Madrid Campus Experience Foundation and tournaments like MIC, Donosti CUP, and Arenas de San Pedro are among many figures in Spain that choose OLIVER to train next world-famous football stars.
