Facebook allows you to create events, invite people to these events and then publicise them. By creating an event, be it for a game, a quiz night or a working group to consider rule changes for the season ahead you can manage RSVPs and see how many people are attending, making planning a lot easier.

Launching a page allows you to bring your players, sponsors and volunteers into one online community to share updates and content (e.g. clubs photos and videos) about your league

One of Facebook’s top functions is the ease with which you can share and organise multiple photos and albums. This is a great tool for sharing and creating memories, the best way to engage people with your league. You can also ask attendees to share photos with their friends to gain larger audiences for your events.

Groups can be public or private. They give members a forum for sharing whatever they choose from a funny picture to a serious announcement

The morning of the game can be a busy time. Facebook allows you to schedule posts in advance, so you can set up a game day announcement earlier in the week when you have more time.
