The Glenelg Football Club and Lumin Sports have been working with each other for a number of years now to implement the Arc platform to the playing squads, medical departments and coaching staff. We understand to implement our technology within teams you must understand the requirements from all levels, athlete, high performance and coaching for it to truly succeed. With years of coaching, playing and practitioner experience within their ranks, the club has seen tremendous benefit in the implementation of Arc.
We recently spent some time with some members of Glenelg Football Club to understand how they have used the Arc platform over the last few years whilst on their quest for premiership glory.
This case study understands how the club have used Arc and Arc Mobile to streamline and access more valuable data to influence the performance of their athletes.
It's instant data, so for us, as soon as I fill out my application the head of high performance can essentially view how I'm feeling and understanding if I'm reporting any injury or illness flags. From there they can make contact with me and to talk about how we can then monitor my training loads as opposed to rolling into training and see how you're feeling and potentially risking an injury or not knowing any other factors from my performance or wellbeing reports.
I think the comparison to Arc compared to any other platforms we've used is just how we can have so much data on there. Play Wellness, GPS, Team Buildr, Post Game Feedback on there. It's just all in the one spot for us to access, which makes it really good for all the coaches, medical staff and our strength conditioning team, ultimately is keeps everyone on the same page.
One thing that the platform has been really good at is creating a compliant culture. Every week, we barely have anyone miss over two days a week for reporting on the app, so they're good with it. They love it. And they know it's for their benefit, which is often a hard sell with athletes.
For me as the Head Coach the fact that our post-game reports are available with such ease. I found that incredibly useful. Our trademark players and any post game feedback is just so easy to get in there, rather than receiving 20 text messages after a game, players can log this within the app. It has made things so streamlined for our team, I feel as though I able to have more time now to spend with my line coaches rather than sifting through data, comments and reports.
"We are a sport and a team with such a diverse work force which is geographically dispersed. Keeping in touch with each other is critical , every day that a rider is not able to train is a day lost to the team and to the rider. Technology and the partnership with Lumin has enabled us to be more connected than ever in a meaningful and relevant way, keeping us on the road."
"Since using the Lumin Sports platform, we, as a high performance football team have been able to consolidate a-lot of our existing data storage and analysis platforms so that we can now use one central platform throughout the department. Seamless integrations with real time visuals has been at the forefront of my work and where I see the most benefit and potential from the Lumin platform from my point of view."
"Time is a valuable resource and having everything in the one place meant we got some of it back. Having performance data, communications, and critical information all in one central hub streamlined our admin processes."
"Using the Lumin platform to track player health and wellness is an easy process to help with player compliance; and a logical dashboard for coaching, medical and performance staff to visualise list availability and status at a glance. It’s been a really valuable addition to our program."
“Lumin Sports has helped our coaches and trainers overcome communication barriers with an easy-to-use, accessible, and collaborative platform. The simplicity of the mobile app has improved communication and planning efficiency. This has undoubtedly enhanced both the coaches and athlete experience, ultimately contributing to team success.”

‘"Both the NSCA and Lumin Sports share a similar mission to advance strength and conditioning. We value having Lumin Sports onboard as a coaches sponsor and appreciate their commitment to supporting the association and our members."
"Lumin Sports has provided an easy, fast, intuitive and visually enticing to collect, analyse and visualize all training load and wellness data. We are doing more as a department than ever previously in regards to our applied sport science efforts from profiling, internal and external load monitoring, subjective questionnaires and more and none of it would not be possible without Lumin Sports."
"As Head Coach, the usability and visual nature of the Lumin platform means I can quickly get a snapshot of how the players are feeling, but also how the team is tracking as a whole. The Lumin Sports Platform is now an important part of our day-to-day lives."
"Before implementing Lumin, time was our biggest pain point. As a club and performance department, we were simply not equipped with the time to monitor even simple metrics like RPE, training loads and wellness. With the Lumin Platform, our athletes can now complete simple surveys and input valuable data in seconds that give us key information that influences our players' performance on game day, it's simply a game changer!"
"Lumin, to be honest, is the best platform on the market. It's fantastically simple and easy to use, there are several AMS systems out there that are complex, hard to use and that really struggle to get athlete buy-in. That is what attracted us to Lumin Sports in the first place was how easy to use both the athlete app and coaches dashboards are. It now gives our coaches far greater detail what our athletes are doing outside of the gym which provides us so much value as an organisation."
