High hopes for NSC's new sports data system

Namibia Sport Commission (NSC) chief administrator Freddy Mwiya says the country’s first sports data management system will streamline operations across the country’s 66 registered sports controlling bodies.He made the remarks at a pre-launch event in Windhoek yesterday, where the system was introduced in collaboration with the Namibian Electronic Sports Association (NESA).The system aims to improve data collection for research, budget planning and governance in alignment with the Access to Information Act of 2022.Mwiya said the initiative is set to officially launch on 7 April. “It's going to make [the work of the media and sports federations] easier.“We want to transition to a paperless system. Come April, all our current federations must have new registration licenses. We are currently working on ensuring compliance,” he said.NESA president Flip de Bruyn highlighted that the collaboration includes his IT consultancy, Future CC, and lead programmer Nico Stoffberg’s Hex-Tech Software Technologies, which developed the system.“I serve as the link between the sports sector, business and the development of the program itself,” De Bruyn said.Sharing the journey of developing the system, Stoffberg, a former national wrestler and e-sports player, said: “I want to help Namibians reach the next phase where we can all grow. It’s been a pleasure working with sportspeople.”– mariud@nsh.com.na
