Sports insurance firm A-G Administrators has joined forces with Sparta Science, a provider of movement diagnostic software.

Both companies will work alongside to offer a solution that will gauge an individual’s readiness for sport, injury risk, and return to play timelines.

The move is relevant amid the ongoing COVID-19 crisis, which is keeping athletes away from sports and offering risk of musculoskeletal injuries upon return.

A-G Administrators chief marketing officer James Shipp said: “Partnering with Sparta Science enhances our reach to provide our customers and prospects a combination of experience, organised products and service after the sale.”

Sparta leverages Force Plate Machine Learning (FPML) to detect one’s movement and offers d individualised, evidence-based plans to improve readiness and reduce injury risk.

The company will provide Sparta 10 hours of testing to existing customers of A-G Administrator.

A-G Administrator believes that in partnership with Sparta, it can lower surgeries by up to 48% and reduce insurance claims linked to injuries by 45% yearly.

Sparta Science senior sports strategist Doug Padron said: “Sparta Science is adamant about leveraging science and technology to provide protection and prevention for athletes.

“We only align ourselves with partners who believe the same and we are excited to be working with A-G Administrators.”

Sparta serves elite and conventional military forces, professional, collegiate, high school sports organisations, strength training professionals, as well as medical providers.
