We Believe Sports Should Be Played, Not Just Watched. ThrowMotion was founded in Silicon Valley around a simple idea: use technology to recreate the physical skill, competition and excitement of the world’s great sports. We started with cricket — one of the world’s most loved sports, but one that had never translated easily into a truly realistic tabletop experience.
From an idea to Lord’s…
Our original CricketLive platform combined mechanical engineering, sensors, software and cloud connectivity to create a remarkably realistic game of cricket. Players could control pace, line and spin, hit shots around the field, track scores and compete on digital leaderboards. The game was a hit at major companies like Google, Cisco, Coca-Cola and used as an integral element of companies’ talent recruitment and engagement strategies. The game was also used at cricket events and ultimately installed at the MCC Museum at Lord’s.
The next innings…
Today we’re taking those years of learning and building the next generation of ThrowMotion — making connected physical cricket more accessible, more personal and more connected.
