ajax hackathon
CTRL the Game. Those who understand the body, understand the game. And whoever understands the game, breaks the code. Take CTRL. Team Rockstars IT has exclusive access to data of Ajax players from Eredivisie matches. What you can do with that? A lot. But then you have to know how. Are you coming to the Hackathon on March 7 at the Johan Cruijf Arena?
fast to
hack the game.
Together with Ajax, we’re diving deep into the data. And you’re going to make a difference.
The Eredivisie is shifting up a gear. Literally. During matches, 12 body points of all 22 players as well as the ball will soon be tracked live – with high-tech cameras in the Johan Cruijff ArenA. Result? A bucket of raw data you could say hello to. And that must be converted into impact.
Enter: you and your team.
During this 12-hour Hackathon, you will get access to the full tracking data of one Eredivisie match. It’s up to you to build something that extracts next-level value from that data. Visualizations. Analyses. Innovations. Maybe even 3D?
We’re looking for front-enders, back-enders, data engineers, software developers, architects, 3D wizards and everything in between. Come as you are – as long as you are hungry for challenge and feel like building.
- Teams: 6-8 strong, multidisciplinary
- Support: technical coaches and the Ajax data team
- Deadline: 12 hours to pop

hackathon awards
At Team Rockstars IT, we believe that true IT impact has two sides.
That’s why during the Hackathon we choose not one, but two winners.
Ajax chooses the winner who makes the biggest business impact.
Rockstars IT chooses the winner who shows how our HOERA values come to life both in the building process and in the final solution.
ajax impact award
The first winner will be chosen by Ajax. They take a broad look at what was built and select the solution with the most business value:
the innovation that improves processes, increases performance and contributes directly to their goals.
rockstars impact award
This winner chooses Team Rockstars IT. Not just based on what was made, but how it was made. We judge both the process and the result on our HOERA core values: Heartfelt, Open, Energetic, Rebellious and Ambitious.
