From 4 December, TOP14 rugby matches will be available in an interactive and immersive environment for fans at the Stade du Hameau in Pau, France, courtesy of the VOGO SPORT mobile sports replay app.

This season, the Section Paloise Béarn Pyrénées rugby club and its sponsoring partner TOTAL has confirmed it will offer VOGO SPORT to spectators in the V.I.P. section of the stadium, enabling them to use their smartphones to watch events from several different video camera views live and in real time from their seats.

The app is free to download from the Apple App Store or the Google Play store prior to all home matches. It allows Section fans to zoom in real time or stop the live action, as well as relive their favourite actions in normal speed or slow-motion replay.

"VOGO SPORT adds tremendous value in live sports entertainment," said Christophe Carniel, VOGO co-founder. "Rugby is an exciting sport and VOGO SPORT makes it ever more exciting for fans by helping them capture and replay all of the great moments in a match."

"As a major sponsor of the Section rugby club, TOTAL wants to offer spectators in the Stade du Hameau an innovative digital experience throughout the season. This is a first in France for the TOP14 Rugby Championship," added Denis Palluat de Besset, vice president general administration of TOTAL Scientific and Technical Center, located in Pau. "TOTAL, the Section rugby club, and VOGO, are thrilled to offer such advanced digital technology through a new and immersive way to engage fans at Stade du Hameau in Pau. We're looking forward to kicking off the season together with the Section rugby club rivaling the Parisian club Racing 92 on December 4."

"With VOGO SPORT, we're engaging our fans on a whole new level," commented Sandra Savio, director, Section rugby club. "With this new service, TOTAL is leveraging the Stade du Hameau's advanced technology infrastructure to create an even more exciting and entertaining experience for our fans onsite by enhancing the way they watch and interact with their team."
