The bank holiday weekend is here and we’ve got a bucketful of Piing coming to a major sports event near you. We’re mainly UK based this weekend with a touch of US, and as usual we’re covering a range of sports at some of the most exciting events on the calendar. We’ll be at the third leg of the Union Cycliste Internationale MTB World Series 2024 at Fort William, with adi.tv. Spectators in the fanzones can test their virtual MTB agility with our Mountain Bike game across the three days of the event, from today until Sunday. Football fans at Burnley FC will get to play our Footy Race and Footy Rebound games before their home match against Newcastle on Saturday afternoon. Meanwhile, down the M66 in Manchester, Man City will be using both Piing Pen-Kick and Piing Quiiz at the Etihad Stadium in the pre-match entertainment before the Wolves game on Saturday. The now regular and much anticipated half time Quiiz will keep fans at the Joie Stadium guessing when Man City Women’s team take on Arsenal on Sunday. Over the pond in the US, fans at Charlotte FC’s fifth home match against Portland in the MLS League will be playing Pen-Kick, in association with club sponsor Ally and MKTG. #events #EventGaming #InteractiveEntertainment #EventExperiences #EventPlanners #EventMarketing  #EngagingExperiences #EventTechnology #sportsTech #eventTech #massparticipation #brandengagement #brandactivation

There’s a lot to look forward to with a new football season, and if you’re a Manchester City supporter you’ll also have the promise of Piing games to add to your match day fun.   Piing is the Official Crowd Games supplier to Manchester City Football Club, meaning fans will be able to take part in Piing games pre-match and at half-time in the Etihad Stadium and the Joie Stadium on match days, as well as in hospitality areas such as the Blue Carpet experience. . The multi-year Official Supplier agreement is a first among Premier League clubs and supports further fan engagement for Manchester City. This will allow fans the chance to test out their penalty shooting skills with the Pen-Kick on the big screens, and flex their footballing knowledge with Quiiz.

Gareth Langley, CEO of Piing, commented: “This collaboration marks a huge step for the Piing brand and brings us back to a team in which we have some deep connections and long standing friendships.” “We’re on a mission to engage fans at the greatest events on Earth, so we’re really looking forward to large crowds across men’s and women’s matches at the Etihad and Joie Stadiums getting their hands on our games.” #events #EventGaming #InteractiveEntertainment #EventExperiences #EventPlanners #EventMarketing  #EngagingExperiences #EventTechnology #sportsTech #eventTech #massparticipation #brandengagement #brandactivation

Fenway Sports Group led a $3B investment in PGA TOUR, according to multiple sources [Forbes, linked here, as well as Boston Globe Media, The Washington Post, &c] Fenway owns the Boston Red Sox, the Pittsburgh Penguins, and Liverpool Football Club in the The Premier League in the #UnitedKingdom. FSG's boss is #billionaire John Henry. The new company gives investors "a minority share in a new #PGA company and allows #pro #golfers to hold ownership stakes," Forbes writes. It also provides some stability for the #golf group, which had hit some rough seas in its battle with LIV Golf, owned by the #Saudi #sovereignwealth fund. July saw a "shocking" move [according to The Associated Press item on it] wherein PGA Tour, LIV Golf and the European Tour combined their commercial businesses. The actual PGA Tour deal is with The Strategic Sports Group, a consortium of #sports property owners. The player #equity part "gives nearly 200 PGA Tour players the opportunity to receive more than $1.5B in equity, collectively, in #PGA Tour Enterprises," the Forbes item says, quoting PGA Tour. https://lnkd.in/gm-q8PgQ #SportsBusiness #Baseball #Soccer #Futbol #Hockey

⏰⚽️ TIME WAITS FOR NO-ONE ⚽️⏰ Standards matter. Perception matters. Delivery is crucial. Yesterday we finally got our William Hill Scottish Championship campaign underway against a very well run and strong Ayr United Football Club side. Whilst the final result was nowhere near what we wanted, the progressive improvement & development in the playing squad under our Management Team of John Rankin & Darian Mackinnon over these last two seasons is evident; perhaps on another day the outcome could have been different. It’s actually only on match days like yesterday however that you fully appreciate just how well run off the park that your Stadium & the entire operational infrastructure has always been year on year under the watchful eye of our Stadium Manager Jimmy Thompson & his team of people. Sadly, as with most busiesses what goes on in the engine room never seems to get the credit it’s due or the recognition that it deserves & there are many unsung heroes behind the scenes. To have maintained the pretty much flawless standards and the impeccable delivery for our customer base and visiting spectators that we’ve become accustomed to Hamilton Academical Football Club Limited (certainly in my time at the Club) takes a phenomenal amount of personal effort, investment, pride in your output & knowledge/capability. These outstanding standards and levels of operational ability aren’t something that are just simply cross transferable either. As we’ve now moved back into possibly the most demanding and challenging League in the Scottish Professional Football League, it’s not only on the field of play that our quality, capability and class as a club will be measured across this season and beyond. Time really waits for no-one, and in a world and on a stage where public opinion based on their experiences is shared openly and freely on Social Media, it’s imperative that we strive to have as good a team and standards of excellence off the park as we do on it. Next time you attend a football match and enjoy a beer in hospitality or a Pie/Bovril in the stands, take a moment to sit and think of the importance of the person like Jimmy at that venue who actually ensured that you could be there to support your Team without issue. The fact is you wouldn’t have enjoyed the best movie you’ve ever seen without a great production crew. 🙏🏽 #Gratitude #Awareness #Appreciation #Standards #Reputation #Consistency #Knowledge

🚨 Did you know seeing too many target pairs can slow down competitions? 🚨 In Sporting Clays, adhering to the "show pair" rules during competitions ensures fairness and efficiency. The first shter can view a good presentation of targets from the shting station, helping strategize shots, especially for true pairs. However, repeatedly asking to see pairs can slow down the competition and cause delays. ⏳ The NSCA rules state that while the first sh**ter can view a good presentation, the process should not be excessively prolonged. Viewing multiple show pairs beyond what's necessary is discouraged, as it not only slows down the squad but also impacts the event schedule and increases costs for the hosting club. 💰 Key Reminders: ✅ View enough pairs to understand targets ✅ Avoid unnecessary delays ✅ Respect event timing and other participants ✅ Follow club-specific rules Balancing the need for target viewing with respect for the event's timing and other participants is essential. Adhering to these rules ensures a smooth and fair competition experience for everyone. 🎯 Come smoke some clays in Northeast Florida! 🌞 🌐 https://buff.ly/3Rrzq3O #AmeliaShotgunSports #SportingClays #ClaySports #Skeet #TargetSports
