British Handball signs up OptimaSport

British Handball has signed up to use sports assessment and tracking system OptimaSport.

The equipment, which monitors a range of biological responses and provides detailed reports and data based on the results, will be integrated into the team's centralised programme at Crystal Palace National Sports Centre.

It will help monitor athletes' response to training sessions, enabling the coaching staff to track the athletes' tolerance and stress levels. This in turn will help quantify session specific training loads and to track how an athlete has recovered.

It will also assist in detecting under- or overtraining, while fitness testing will enable coaches to gauge individual and team improvements.
