The software was developed
through work with fast-medium bowlers from Sussex along
with members of the British Athletics squad involved in

bodies, including the English Table Tennis Association,
UK Athletics, British Swimming Association and Charlton
Athletic as well as the ECB, Sussex, Somerset, Northhamptonshire
and Hampshire.
In February 2000, Hampshire acquired the
Quintic video analysis system as a tool for coaching their
Academy players. "The two individual players who
benefited most from the system were fast bowlers Chris
Tremlett and leg-spinner Ian Hilsum," said cricket
development officer Mark Garaway. "Chris has had
serious problems with an injured back. With the help of
video analysis, we were able to enhance Chris' bowling
action and the height of release. He took 20 first-class
wickets last season and has been rewarded with a place
on the National Academy". |
