Doctors of the sixteen (16) qualified countries for the ORANGE AFCON Equatorial Guinea 2015 attended the workshop.

This new computer system, to be accessible on the internet from 17^thDecember 2014 to 16^thJanuary, 2015, will enable each doctor of the qualified national teams to enter PCMA data of each eligible player in a confidential and secure manner.

The system, highly welcomed by the participants, will open a wider door to research in Football Medicine and the development of a health map for a footballer.
