Maximise Your Club’s Social Media Presence
Social media is one of the best ways to share updates, generate local interest, and get people talking about your club. With the right approach, it can help spread the word and grow your community.
Just as your club relies on key roles like President and Secretary, appointing a Social Media Manager or sharing the responsibility among committee members is equally important. This person or team should monitor both what’s being posted by your club and what’s being said about it. They’ll be your first line of contact if any concerns arise about a post, helping you respond quickly and appropriately.
Social media moves fast, so it’s essential to check your accounts regularly, at least twice a week. This ensures you stay on top of any unexpected issues and maintain a positive, family-friendly atmosphere. Remember: everything you post should reflect the values of your club.
While celebrating wins and successes is great, who doesn’t love a victory! Be mindful to avoid criticism of other clubs, individuals, or officials. Similarly, steer clear of posting images that involve alcohol consumption, as they don’t align with the inclusive, responsible image you want to project.
By managing your club’s social media effectively, you can create a positive and engaging online presence that reflects the best of your community.
