Demcon Johan Sports is expanding its innovative PACER monitoring technology into the healthcare sector through its participation in the European TREAT project. This initiative explores how PACER's advanced real-time ECG and heart rate monitoring can improve patient self-reliance and chronic disease management.

Demcon Johan Sports has launched a multi-year partnership with FC Twente, introducing their advanced JOHAN PACER GPS heart rate system across the club's teams, including the first team, FC Twente Women, and the Academy.

Managing player data across multiple teams just got easier with JOHAN Sports’ new “Player Data Sharing” feature. Whether you're dealing with youth academy players, national team athletes, or players moving between first and second teams, this feature ensures a seamless integration of training and match data. Previously, merging data from different teams required manual exports. Now, you can view comprehensive player statistics in one unified dashboard. For instance, if a youth player trains with the first team but plays matches with the U21 squad, their training data will automatically sync and be visible across both teams. This streamlined approach not only simplifies data management but also enhances performance tracking and analysis. Learn how to activate this feature and optimize your team’s data management process.
