FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
PitchCom Expands Into Professional Football with CFL Debut of PitchCom Impact

SCOTTSDALE, AZ – [Date] – PitchCom, the global leader in on-field communication technology, is proud to announce its official debut in professional football. This weekend, select Canadian Football League (CFL) teams will introduce PitchCom Impact—a groundbreaking signal-calling system that delivers encrypted defensive play calls directly to players' helmets in real time during live league competition.

“We’re excited to see CFL teams bring PitchCom Impact onto the field,” said John Hankins, CEO of PitchCom. “No other system can instantly transmit customized audio to multiple players simultaneously, each with unique assignments. It streamlines communication, reduces huddle time, and increases practice efficiency—all while improving player safety and game tempo.”

Trusted Across Championship-Level Sports

Already used by all 30 Major League Baseball (MLB) teams—including World Series champions—PitchCom’s technology has become the standard for secure, real-time communication, eliminating sign stealing and accelerating the pace of play. The system is also widely adopted across NCAA Division I baseball, collegiate softball, and elite youth programs such as Perfect Game.

“PitchCom Impact isn’t just for pro leagues like the CFL or NFL,” said Jon Updike, VP of Customer Relations at PitchCom. “It’s an affordable, scalable solution for colleges and high schools looking to modernize practices and boost player development. With direct-to-helmet clarity and zero interference, it’s communication you can trust—anywhere on the field.”

A New Era of Football Communication

The CFL’s adoption of PitchCom marks a historic step forward in football communication. By enabling encrypted, helmet-based audio transmission, teams gain faster play execution, improved coordination, and reduced reliance on traditional sideline signals—all while elevating the player experience.
