 About TrackMan  
TrackMan leads the way in sports technology, offering innovative solutions that enhance performance for players and coaches across golf, baseball, and more. TrackMan started with a question. Could a golf ball be tracked? It was just one question. But since 2003, there have been so many more. And that relentless desire to seek, to probe, to test and to push has remained at the heart of the company philosophy. That’s why TrackMan technology leads the industry. With solutions across golf and innovation in baseball, soccer and American football too, TrackMan has changed how sports are played, taught and viewed on live broadcast. 

Trackman products are used by a very wide audience including professional athletes, amateurs, casual players, business owners, equipment manufacturers and the PGA Tour. Golf is the primary business segment, but Trackman also has excellent solutions in baseball, American football, soccer and tennis. Trackman even helped competitors at The Tokyo Olympics use data to analyze and better their performance in the hammer throw and shot put. 

Trackman has changed the way technology is used in sports today. From how professionals and amateurs train and take lessons, to the development and fitting of equipment, to the way sports are played, taught and enjoyed on television.
