What GOES in A Game Program?
Rosters
The more names , the better. Game programs are capturing once in a lifetime experiences for players, fans and families. Rosters include the player names and create value for every mention. In addition, rosters are useful when watching the event. They help identify the players on the field.
Schedules
Present and past results are extremely valuable to engage your audience. Include schedules in game programs to capture interest from people that are actively tracking results and to record history for people that are holding onto the game program as a commemorative.
Group & Action Photos
Game programs work very similarly to social media content, where people enjoying viewing content that features their friends, favorite players, and their own experiences. Game programs should include group and action photos that highlight the team or group and feature as many participants as possible. Distributing special photos in the game program only can increase the value of the publication as well, making the content limited to access the program.
Editorial Content
Articles and special features work great in game programs, whether you choose to publish digital or in print. Limited edition editorial gives you the chance to engage your audience and feature a special sponsor that wants to be associated with the content. Great examples are player of the week, game recaps and special features about player interests off the field or court.
Advertisements (Sponsor Features)
Bluntly, advertising dollars make the program worth running. Sponsors are the reason that most groups publish a game program. Feature sponsors on every piece of content. Your publication is valuable for businesses that want to associate with your team or group.
