For over 17 years Strenua has delivered the official match data collection for Stats Perform (Opta) in Scottish football. We find the analysts, train them, put them at the right game on the right day, and check every match they send.
Opta's Football Live project feeds statistics from Scottish football to broadcasters, clubs and media. Good data starts with the people collecting it, and Strenua runs that side of it: complete, accurate and on time, every fixture.
We find analysts who know the game and train them to Opta's standards before they cover a live match.
We allocate around 244 matches a month across the network, confirm every analyst and look after their fees, so every game is covered.
We score each analyst's accuracy against the Opta feed, catch problems early, and coach them to get it right first time.
Warren founded Strenua in 2003 and has been Opta's project manager for Football Live in Scotland since 2013, running a network of 94 freelance analysts. Before that he was Chief Executive of Greenock Morton Football Club and a director of the Scottish Professional Football League, where he chaired the Competitions Working Group. He has also worked with PFA Scotland, and gives his time pro bono to Moving On Inverclyde and the Berwick Rangers Community Foundation.
