goal line technology seminar report in pdf
This report will examine technology’s influence throughout the sporting world and its current paramountcy on sporting matches and events. It will analyse current technological officiating methods concentrating on their level of success and how these could be imitated in football; using valued perspectives both for and against technological involvement in football. The paper will acknowledge each side of the argument in detail, deciphering factors that cause such strong opinions to be held around the debate of goal line technology or indeed the lack of it. The opinions of those whom are involved and will be effected by such a change in the world’s most popular game will be discussed in conjunction with the vast list of questions and issues surrounding the debate.
Factors involving the various technologies available or in current development will be discussed as well as the way the politics, that have many believing are the sole source of football’s lack of technological input, effect companies’ and institute’s researching and developing of potential goal line technology. The head of the University of Loughborough's sporting development institute, Professor Mike Caine will speak of his personal stance on all of the controversy that has ignited the deliberation of the goal line technology debate in a phone interview conducted at the culmination of this dissertation.
What is goal line technology?
Goal line technology is a technology that is being ivestigated to be used in football. It has come into the spotlight because of recent incidents where in games, the ball has crossed the line, but has not been noticed by the referee, and so the goal was not given. Sometimes when the ball crosses the line by a couple of inches before being hoofed out by a defender, it is difficult for the ref to see. Examples of this include:
Roy Carrol famously carried the ball over the line after a 50 yard shot by Pedro Mendes in 2005, with the score at 0-0 between Manchester United and Tottenham - the goal would have given Tottenham the win
Manchester United's Ryan Giggs slid the ball in in extra time of the 2007 FA Cup Final, where Chelsea's Petr Cech 'saved' the ball about a foot inside the goal line. The goal was not given and Chelsea went on to win the game. The goal would have seen Manchester United leading 1-0 with not much time left in the final
perhaps the most famous of all is Geoff Hurst's goal in the 1966 World Cup Final, which clearly did not cross the line and led to England winning the World Cup
The technology involves embedding the football with a microchip, and having sensors on the goal line, so the when the ball passes the goal line, the microchip will send a signal to the referee and he knows its a goal.
