He provided valuable suggestions and inputs based on data derived from Stupa’s AI solutions to enhance the players’ and coaching staff’s preparations.

Highlighting the critical role of technology in player preparation, Deepak Malik stated, “Providing analytics support at this camp, approved by SAI and recommended by both the Table Tennis Federation of India (TTFI) and Massimo Constantini, is an honor for us. Our goal is to empower the Indian table tennis team with precise analytics and insights to enhance their performances. By understanding game styles, trends, and patterns, our tech will help players develop specific tactics and focus on improvement areas. We are committed to helping our athletes reach their maximum potential and bring glory to India.”

Insights from the Head Coach

Massimo Constantini, Head Coach of the Indian Table Tennis Team, emphasized the importance of this milestone: “Qualifying for Paris through the World Rankings is a significant achievement for India, placing us among the top 16 teams globally. Stupa has been instrumental in our journey, providing comprehensive data that complements coaching insights with statistical analysis and visual aids.

Metrics on ball contact, player movement, and shot timing have greatly enhanced our preparation and performance discussions. This analytical support is as crucial as physiotherapy and fitness regimes. Stupa’s involvement in prestigious events like the WTT Star Contender underscores their leadership in sports analytics, offering federations and clubs invaluable tools. Their innovation sets them apart in the industry, supporting our quest for excellence on the global stage.”

Ongoing Support and Future Prospects

Stupa Sports Analytics co-hosted the WTT Star Contender in India, where Sreeja Akula secured her qualification for the Olympics. Currently, Stupa continues to provide advanced performance analytics and data support to the Indian team as they prepare for the Paris Olympics 2024. The Paris Olympics will commence on July 26, 2024, with table tennis matches starting from July 27. The women’s and men’s singles gold medal matches are scheduled for August 3 and 4, respectively.

This partnership between Stupa Sports Analytics and the Indian table tennis team exemplifies the powerful integration of technology and sports, aiming to bring out the best in athletes and elevate their performance on the global stage.
