Here's info from one of the best sports shooters out there:

Hmm intresting.
But that is an old article. I wonder if they still do that?

Ill ask..

On the floor of the games the lighting is so good you would not need this strobe shit.

My lens is not nearly as good as the guys on the floor. And I shoot at 500 iso.

The article was talking about with this strobe be able to shoot at 800 iso.. Ive never needed to shoot that high. And that without a flash at that.

I dont see those guys needing it. There is so much press or media on the floor now days I dont think they use it anymore. but maybe they do.
