When you have 700 stewards responsible for the safety of 60,000 customers, effective communications are vital. A slow response time can change an incident into a crisis. In a medical emergency that can mean the difference between life and death.
At Arsenal FC’s home, the Emirates Stadium, they adopted StewardCall solution. StewardCall allows all 700 stewards to communicate instantly with supervisors and emergency staff.
Having been involved in stadium management with Arsenal for over 19 years, the stadium manager comments, “I’m not aware of any stadium in the world with such an effective system – StewardCall has set new standards”.
StewardCall also makes light work of some of the more complex tasks of running a stadium. The wireless technology has already been well proven in the USA by many NFL, Major League Baseball, National Hockey League and College Football venues.
“There’s every reason why StewardCall should be of interest to all major sporting stadiums, concert arenas and large capacity venues,” says Ashley Sheppard, Group Commercial Director. “As a practical crowd safety solution it’s well ahead of the game.”
The Emirate’s Stadium Manager is a big fan of StewardCall. “The beauty of the system is that it gives all 700 of our stewards a simple, effective, fast way to communicate,” he says. “And it keeps us firmly in the know.”
