Introduction: Computer science in sport is a new field which has an aim that combines aspects and methods of informatics sport science. The combination of informatics and sport science is based on the use of computer-based and mathematical techniques, targeting at the improvement in sports. Nowadays computer science has an important role in sport science due to the requirements of accuracy, ease, and simplicity. However, computer in sports were first used in the 1960’s. Since then, new generations of scientific uses of computer in sports are rapidly increasing. These new scientific uses are helping every athlete. On the other hand, scientists are trying to get new scientific uses of computers in sports. The scientists use a variety of information technology concepts. Each concept works in different types of fields in sports. Moreover, many countries are helping the computer science in sport. Nowadays, there are more than five national organizations around the world. They are the main key of improvement in the computer science in sport. History: Computer science of sport
