  • Every great team needs a clear strategy. Ask yourself:

    What do I want to achieve with social media?

    • Examples: Increase player engagement, attract sponsors, or highlight players for recruitment.

    Who is my audience?

    • Players: Celebrate achievements and inspire confidence.

    • Parents: Keep them informed with updates and milestones.

    • Sponsors: Showcase their contributions to strengthen partnerships.

    • Community Members: Share inspiring stories to foster pride.

    Understanding these elements will guide your content creation.

  • Social media success starts with great content—but not all content serves the same purpose. Tailor your approach based on your goals, platform, and audience. Remember, consistency and frequency are key. Social media is where people go to connect, so provide value through posts that resonate.

  • Social media isn’t just about creating posts—it’s about reaching and engaging new audiences. Metrics like shares and comments are key indicators of success because they show your content is resonating and spreading. The more your posts are shared, the more your account reaches people who don’t yet follow you.

    Maximizing Reach

    Use tags and collaborations to ensure your posts reach the right audience. Tag players, parents, sponsors, and even local organizations to expand visibility.

    Collaborate with partners or other teams to cross-promote content and grow your community.

    Track Engagement Metrics

    Focus on metrics that drive visibility:

    Shares: How often your content is shared with new audiences.

    Comments: How much your audience is engaging with your posts directly.

    These “vanity metrics” matter because they lead to extended reach and build momentum for your brand.
