LRSSports and 3D MVP Join Forces to Revolutionize the Football Coaching Industry
November 5, 2007 - (Springfield, Illinois) - LRSSports, a product line of Springfield-based Levi, Ray & Shoup, Inc., has teamed with 3D technology powerhouse 3D MVP to revolutionize the football
coaching industry.
Together, LRSSports and 3D MVP are providing coaches the competitive edge with field-level animation of an opponent's plays. This helps a coaching staff better prepare their team by enabling them to show their players in 3D the exact formations, routes, fronts and coverages they will see on the field. Coaches can then more effectively teach the players strategy using what closely resembles a three-dimensional video game format. The 3D format dramatically increases the effectiveness of time spent in the training facility.
"We are thrilled about our partnership with 3D MVP," says Ron Wojcicki, Manager, LRSSports® Software. "3D simulation is a very powerful teaching tool that professional and college football coaches will use to illustrate animated plays from any of the twenty-two players' perspectives. Integrating the 3D MVP Play Visualizer software into the LRSSports Ultima® football coaching station with Presentation Manager will make our products even more appealing to our clientele. This will become a "must have" for the coaches."
"We are excited to have LRSSports as a partner. In this industry, you need to have a team that has a one-on-one relationship with coaches and video directors; LRS rounds out our team nicely," says Murray Taylor, Co-Founder, 3D MVP.
