Objective of the study was to substantiation of requirements for the development of sports AIC in the context of phygitalization.
Results of the study and discussion. Retrospective analysis of scientific works, practical research in the field of development and application of sports APC.
Results and conclusions. The analysis of four stages of development of sports APC in the context of phygitalization allowed us to formulate the following requirements: APC should fully cover at least one stage of sports training, contain all the tools necessary for a coach and an athlete in competitive activities. evaluate not only individual parameters, but also a system of measured parameters, provide the coach with the ability to combine, create original methods and make changes to existing programs, allow receiving both "raw", unprocessed data and data already subjected to intellectual processing (using artificial intelligence technologies) at the selected degree of generalization and maintain the declared accuracy parameters, interact with data without the possibility of qualitative and quantitative losses (during active sports activities, use of wireless and cloud technologies), theft or malicious use, integrate with various digital services and products, and interact with the community.

Keywords: phygitalization of sports, Games of the Future, phygital sports, eSports, digital sports, digitalization of sports, phygital center.
