Amateur sports face the challenge of data corruption and stats manipulation due to the lack of an official source to justify the data collected and presented to the public. Lower leagues that include first and second divisions of any sports leagues -and to some extent even third division – are devoid of the infrastructure already established leagues enjoy.
In football, second and third-tier divisions, especially in Africa have only a referee and two linesmen at their disposal. They lack the infrastructure such as professional cameras to record games, analyze player and team performance, produce data and stats which are crucial ingredients to betting companies and potential sponsors.
The inability to justify and validate data and stats cast doubts on the integrity of sports which include match-fixing and data corruption. Since companies and sponsors cannot perceive value and gauge authenticity, the league games remain under the shadow with little knowledge about them.
However, the incorporation of video solutions would add value to the leagues and open doors to sports investment. In collaboration with federations, betting companies can promote the need for automated video solutions to avoid data corruption and manipulation and boost the integrity of sports in general.
