University of Nebraska–Lincoln,
United States
Powering performance from practice to game day.
At the heart of the University of Nebraska–Lincoln sits its legendary Athletics Department, made up of coaches, staff and over 600 student-athletes. Nebraska Athletics earns its reputation as one of the best programmes in the country by taking an innovative approach to combining competitive sports with academics. As a fundamental part of investing in tools for success, leadership chooses Apple products to help achieve their goals across areas of team performance, health and wellness, training, productivity and academics.
Coaches at Nebraska use iPad to plan games and practices, communicate with their teams and track performance metrics of student-athletes using specialised iOS apps. They’re even using iPad to help scout and recruit student-athletes from all over the country.
All 600+ student-athletes receive a MacBook to support academic success. In fact, Nebraska Athletics leads the country in Academic All-Americans and NCAA Top 10 award winners. As some of the busiest students on campus, Mac allows them to create, collaborate and stay in touch with counsellors, classmates and peers — both while travelling and on campus.
And to support the health, safety and performance of their teams, the Performance Lab at Nebraska Athletics utilises Apple technology to help coaches and staff record and track biomechanics and biomarkers of student-athletes to support everything from concussion management to physical and mental wellness. This allows coaches to ensure their athletes are staying healthy and safe.
“We rely on Apple to run our entire athletics department because we want our staff, students and coaches using great technology. That’s one of the things that gives us an edge.”
