Lincoln, Nebraska, 24 March 2025: Hudl and the Uruguayan Football Association (AUF), have secured a multi-year partnership to integrate WIMU’ s advanced athlete monitoring solution, across Uruguay's national football teams. This collaboration makes Uruguay the first South American national football team to integrate WIMU into their Hudl solutions, marking a significant step toward adopting a more advanced and interconnected athlete monitoring ecosystem.
Data-driven insights are crucial for effective decision-making. The adoption of WIMU ensures that the national teams— including the men’s teams from U15 to the first team, and the women’s first team—benefit from precise athlete data. This athlete-specific data enables coaches and sports scientists to enhance player performance and manage training loads more effectively.
“The decision to implement WIMU aligns with our dedication to innovation and our ongoing efforts to push the boundaries of sports science and performance analysis,” shared Jorge Giordano, Director of National Teams from the Uruguayan Football Association. “WIMU, along with Hudl solutions, equips our teams with a comprehensive system to make more informed decisions for our players' development.”
WIMU’s seamless integration with Hudl’s Sportscode and the other components of the Hudl Pro Suite centralizes all athlete data, tracking, and video analysis within one unified system. This integration fosters greater collaboration among coaching staff and sports science teams, streamlining workflows from youth levels up to the senior national teams.
“We are excited to partner with the Uruguayan Football Federation and continue providing cutting-edge athlete monitoring solutions that drive performance and success for teams, coaches, and organizations at every level,” added Bruno Contardo, Hudl Senior Sales Director. “This collaboration enables the Uruguayan national football teams to take their data-driven approach to the next level.”
This partnership continues the growing trend of football federations and clubs worldwide adopting Hudl’s solutions. By integrating WIMU, the Uruguayan Football Federation is progressing toward a more holistic, data-driven approach to athlete performance. The Hudl ecosystem—comprising advanced tools for capture, content, data, distribution, analysis, and wearables—enables transdisciplinary collaboration across departments and a collaborative approach which is essential for enhancing athlete health and performance.
Through this collaboration, Uruguay is not only strengthening the capabilities of its national teams but setting a new standard for how data-driven collaboration can elevate performance in football.
