Vancouver Warriors are Building Connections Through Social Media

Posted on by

Social Media is a powerful tool when it is used for good. The Vancouver Warriors have done exactly that with their social media campaign this year being exceptional. Entertaining, creative and fun are just a few words that can be used to describe what is witnessed whether its gameday or not.

The players are clearly having fun and it exemplifies that they are people too, just like the fans. Creating opportunities for the fans to get to know the players and allow them to express themselves makes for an entertaining social media feed all season long. Clarissa Sabile, Warriors Social Media Coordinator, spoke about some of the attitudes that helped all this come together.

“I learned very quickly that these athletes, not specifically box lacrosse but just the Vancouver Warriors players they are very, very accessible, very kind, very open to wanting to create content and all they needed was someone to help them make that content and that’s where I came in.” – Clarissa Sabile

With creating this online presence comes creating a place for fans to connect and people to feel included. Lacrosse is a sport that not many know a great deal about. However, with the right space to learn and feel accepted, the fans can feel a part of something special.

“Its obviously a league that is still growing and that’s really fun to me and very exciting. But with that I just really wanted to create that space online that people could both learn about lacrosse and also learn about the team and also have a lot of fun” – Clarissa Sabile

Sabile also talked about her own feelings regarding being accepted into the industry and into this team. This inspired her to create a space where other people could have that same feeling and feel like they belong.

The Warriors season may be over but many of the players will be competing in other leagues throughout the summer such as the WLA here in BC or in the PLL in the United States. Therefore, there is still plenty of opportunity to catch your favorites in action until next NLL season.
