Main Introduction


Nowadays technology plays an essential role in sports. Every time is more common that new machines, applications and technologies are revolutionizing the way sports are played, regulated and watched by its fans all around the world.


As its known, lots of new issues have been being developed in order to improve and transform sports. These technologies, as ingestible computers, wearable computers, biomimetics, carbon nanotechnology, computational fluid dynamics, digital imaging and video, information technologies, reactive materials, robotics, tool-less manufacturing and so on, are going to transform every single sport, and consequently the International Sports Management.

This blog that we have created has the purpose of explain how new technologies are transforming the Event Management, Athlete Preparation and the Media and ICTs in Tennis sport.

CONCLUSIONS

It is true that technology applications bring great benefits to tennis equipment’s that allow you to maximize your performance on the field at the same time that gives you a competitive advantage over other tennis players, but from my point of view there are some problems that we need to consider:

· Not all players have access to high-tech equipment’s, one of the main reasons is that some of these often are very expensive


· Although all athletes have such technological tools, always some equipment’s will be better than others, which means that when two equal level players face in the field of play, one of them could be an advantageous position. There would be no problem if all players use the same equipment but unfortunately this is not possible because some have agreements or contracts for use specific brands which prevent players can use the same type of uniform or racket.

Regardless of the controversy, innovation in the sports technology will continue, as a result the official sport organizations will have to develop rules governing advances for fairer competition.
