Premier League exploring new tech
The Premier League is exploring the possibility of adopting the "Connected Ball" technology, which relies on a sensor chip inside the ball to accurately determine the moment of contact. The goal is to improve the accuracy of refereeing decisions in situations such as offside calls, handballs, and changes in ball direction. During trials in the Women's Champions Cup and competitions in Leipzig, the technology-equipped ball was used without being officially implemented in matches. The system operates through a sensor that precisely detects the timing of each touch and provides additional data for referees. The league does not plan to adopt the technology immediately and continues to rely on optical tracking via 30 cameras. However, this trial follows the Spanish league’s full adoption of the "Connected Ball" system, as well as in international tournaments like the 2022 and 2026 World Cups, where the technology helped enhance the accuracy of touch timing and offside decisions.
