Why College Tennis Is Expanding Pilot Of PlaySight Challenge System

When the Intercollegiate Tennis Association serves up its first national tournament of the 2018 season this weekend, a couple of the host schools will take part in a technology initiative implemented to make the game a bit fairer.

That technology? PlaySight’s PlayFair system, a video replay assistant that provides players and referees with the ability to challenge and watch video of a questionable line call. PlayFair works as part of PlaySight’s signature SmartCourt camera-and-kiosk setup that also delivers player and match analytics and live streaming capabilities.

PlayFair will be on full display at both the University of Southern California and the University of California, Berkeley, Friday through Sunday as college teams from across the country travel in to compete.
