I follow most local clubs on places like Instagram, Facebook and Twitter (I'm not a snapchat user. Maybe I should check that out too).
And maybe I'm hitting that "get off of my damn lawn" age now.
But the constant posting of wins is starting to be a little over the top. Post your losses too. Or post that your Flight 1/DPL team won Flight 3 in a tournament. Or mention the guest players that you brought in.
I also think it's kinda crappy when a club posts "Our SD Smurf DA team beat the OC Purples ENCL team by 3-0". Go ahead and post that you won. But I don't think you need to mention the team that you beat.
Or tagging a player that scored a goal. Congrats to "@lilMiaHamm" for the hat trick and game winner!!!!!
Social Media can be great. But it seems like they grey haired guys running clubs think this is their new holy grail to recruit and retain players.
Clubs should post about tryouts and general information. But leave the bragging to the players.
