USSSA Debuts Cutting-Edge Replay Tech

July 1, 2024 – Viera is certainly proud to be home to the great organization, the United States Specialty Sports Association and their beautiful $50 million, 85-acre venue which houses 15 multi-purpose, state-of-the-art, all-turf fields (five of which are NCAA-approved), three Championship stadiums and three HD videoboards with livestreaming capabilities on every field.

USSSA continued its tradition of using state-of-the-art technology when it recently added a new instant replay system at the Fastpitch Space Coast World Series, held June 23-28.

The technology was launched as part of USSSA’s commitment to enhancing the participant experience at its events.

“We are continuously looking for ways to progress and push youth fastpitch forward,” said Ryan Highfill, National Fastpitch Director for USSSA. “We have the technology at our Space Coast Complex to effectively and efficiently enable plays to be challenged through the utilization of instant replay. This is a significant value-add for our participants, enhancing the experience for all.”

“USSSA’s integration of instant replay technology at the Space Coast Complex blends the expertise and professionalism of our USSSA umpire staff with the obvious advantages of modern technology,” added Don Briscoe, Assistant National Director of Officials & National Fastpitch UIC. “It supports the reason we exist and why we do what we do — to get the call right.”

We have all come to expect the newest technological advances here on the Space Coast, so it’s no surprise that USSSA has launched the latest in instant replay science. Play ball!
