Technology's Role in Modern Sports Management Introduction Since the introduction of IT, the framework and administration of sports have undergone significant changes. In this reply, we'll compare the approaches of two teams that couldn't be more different from one another: Team USA baseball and the Oakland Athletics in the America's Cup sailing competition, and see how the usage of modern technology in sports has affected their strategies. The impact of technological developments on Team USA's ultimate America's Cup triumph will be evaluated as well. The impact of sabermetrics on baseball will be examined at length. To better understand how the development of sports technology and the importance of human judgment interact, consider these topics[ CITATION Lon18 \l 1033 ]. 1. Impact of Information Technology on Baseball and America's Cup Racing Both baseball and America's Cup sailing have been affected by the development of the internet. Sabermetrics is an advanced kind of statistic that has allowed for the creation of current baseball payrolls. Advanced measures like Wins Above Replacement (WAR) and Fielding Independent Pitching (FIP) are used in sabermetrics, which expands baseball evaluation well beyond the area of batting average and runs batted in. You may use these statistics to make better buying and playing choices. The America's Cup sailing competition is only one arena where advancements in computers and networking have had a significant influence[ CITATION Dav199 \l 1033 ].

The use of data analytics and simulations by computers has led to improved boat designs and racing strategies. These technological advancements provide teams with a significant edge in competition by enabling them to monitor weather conditions, currents, and vessel efficiency in real time[ CITATION Dav199 \l 1033 ]. 2. Influence of Information Technology on Decision Making Information technology has been crucial to the Athletics' success in both the America's Cup campaign and their day-to-day operations. Using data collected in real-time, the American crew optimized their vessel. The crew's performance greatly improved as a result of using this data- driven plan to make instantaneous adjustments to sail trim, route decision-making, and race strategy. The speed and accuracy with which Team USA's sailors and engineers processed and analyzed the data greatly improved the boat's performance. The Oakland Athletics reevaluated their player depth chart using sabermetrics. Scouts in the past often relied on their intuition rather than hard evidence when making decisions. The Athletics might get a better understanding of each player's contribution to the club by using technological tools. The use of data analytics to recognize underappreciated team members has contributed to the team's overall performance. The rapid ascent of the A's to MLB supremacy has been credited to the club's commitment to experimentation[ CITATION Dav199 \l 1033 ]. 3. The Role of Technology in Team USA's America's Cup Victory The American team used state-of-the-art equipment to take home the America's Cup. The group gained an advantage over the competition thanks to the creative use of data analytics and cutting- edge technologies.

Through simulations and analysis of in-race data, Team USA fine-tuned their boat's capabilities for the circumstances they anticipated encountering. The crew was able to make more informed strategic choices during races because of developments in weather forecasting technology. While technology was not the deciding factor in Team USA's victory, it was instrumental. Once IT was integrated into every facet of the campaign, it saw a dramatic uptick in success. 4. The Significance of Sabermetrics in Baseball Sabermetrics' popularity in the baseball world has skyrocketed in recent years. Teams often use very intricate statistical models to assess player performance and provide strategic guidance. Sabermetrics helps by painting a more nuanced and comprehensive picture of the role each player plays in the team's performance. When calculating a player's worth to a club, sabermetrics takes into account more than just his stats at the plate and in the field. In-game decisions like defensive formation changes and bullpen use have been affected by this data-driven strategy[ CITATION Dav199 \l 1033 ]. Conclusion The beginning of the digital era brought about a shift in the manner in which wagers are placed on sporting events. The use of instantaneous analytics for data in the America's Cup sailing competition is a typical instance of how technology has benefited teams and players in all categories. Another example is the emergence of sabermetrics in baseball. The overwhelming performance of Team USA in the America's Cup highlights the importance of using technology in high-level sports that are competitive. The growing presence of technology in sports creates exciting new opportunities for the development of innovative training methods and game plans.
