Most of what makes a VAR review trustworthy happens before the first whistle — and then disappears into seconds of calm, clear footage when a referee asks for it. Here's how we run a review, end to end.
We rig and synchronise the channels in a single day — from cabling the venue to a live multiview the referees can trust. Independent broadcast-grade channels are positioned to the discipline — overhead, both goal-lines, both sides and the bench — fully synchronised and fully redundant, so the decisive angle is always recording.
From the referee's signal to the verdict on screen: the operator jumps to the moment, scrubs in ultra slow-motion and frame by frame, and marks IN/OUT to isolate exactly what matters. Our operator drives it on the referee's instructions — and the simpler actions the referee can run directly, always with our supervision and support. The decision is always theirs.
A goal-line scramble confirmed in seconds from the goal-cam. A contested exclusion looked at again when the table goes to the tape. Working shoulder-to-shoulder with the delegate and the referees — we bring the angles, they make the call. Match after match, that's the work.
We cover federations and organisers across sports. Tell us the event and we'll plan the cameras around it.
