The Growth of Digital in Sports
The Rise of The Digital Fan
In-home is (and always has been)  the
         prime viewing spot
Digital and Social Platforms are
fundamentally changing the way
       people watch sports
I think the new way to
  enjoy a game is to have
your TV on and have your
 iPhone or smartphone in
your hand. You no longer
have to have a meet-up of
20 people. I watch a game
  and Im interacting with
   thousands of people

      Matt Halfhill
       Blogger
The Rise of The Digital Fan
Fox Sports say that a fan might use
his phone 100 times on match day
to access sports related mobi-sites
        Source: Nielsen wired
We are rethinking the model of the
 best available screen. Interaction goes
well beyond that biggest screen.but its
  about the right content for the right
                 screen

      Rob Master, VP, Media, Unilever
But its not just in-home...




F.C Barcelona partners with Telefonica to provide the finest access to
                          Social Networks
How is all of this impacting the
  discipline of sponsorship?
WC 2010




  VS
Remember this?




Sponsorship has ceased to be a conversational guarantee

the brand readiness factor  that readiness to synthesise
   paid and traditional media with earned and social
 media and to feed the conversational frenzy surrounding
            the beautiful game ahead of time.
                      Pete Blackshaw
            VP Nielsen Digital Strategic Services
Social Bowl XLC
 Social Media Remained a huge
contributing factor to the overall
           experience
EEE
On Average only 11 minutes of football
        in the average game!




                               The Wall St Journal
2011 was no exception

Virtually all advertisers stoked the conversation
  prior to match day by showing sneak peeks of
 their ads, inviting consumers to vote for the ad
they wanted to see...even creating 3 minute films
              they hoped would go viral
The following graphs show how sustained the online
conversation was even a full week before match-day
The Rise of The Digital Fan
Remember this quote?




Last year (2009), brands used Social Media marketing mostly to develop
     content for and promote their Super Bowl ads (like Doritos who
 crowdsourced their 30 slots) - but this year Super Bowl ads are being
dedicated to the support of larger Social Media marketing strategies. The
                    servant has become the master.

                     Augie Ray, Forresters Research
           On the role of social media in the 2010 Super Bowl
So what did fans do during the game?
                    14% of the total audience -
                     about 12m viewers - accessed
                     the internet and used social
                     platforms during the broadcast

                    The time spent on such
                     platforms increased from 23
                     minutes in 2010 to 29 minutes
                     in 2011

                    Google and Facebook were the
                     top two sites visited  though
                     the average simultaneous time
                     spent on Facebook by viewers
                     was 19 minutes
The shape of things to come?

The practice

4 Key developments and trends
#1
  Skipping the Stadium
Providing the stadium experience in-
                home
TNTs Screen Mosaic
#2
   Fantasy over Reality
Fantasy sports is a $4bn industry

  The rise of the Quant Jock
#3
       Theyre just like me
 Places average Joes on the field, in the lockeroom or
   right in the middle of the everyday lives of their
              favourite celebrity-athletes.

The whole concept of the FAN is changing rapidly from
 being a person who follows a team to a person who
        literally stalks individual sports stars
The way we think about watching
   sports is going through a rapid
transformation. Attendance is down
 across most leagues but TV ratings
   are up. Fans seem to be more
    wrapped up in the sagas of
individual athletes than they are in
  following their favourite teams

     Quoted in Mashable.com
A recent photo from the NY Giants
 locker room post a major victory
  received over 40 000 likes on
        Facebook in 2 hours
#4
Theres an app for that
Now, more than ever, the App is becoming the most important lens into the online
world...this app for Wimbledon (iPhone and iPad) is your first and last stop when it
                        comes to following the tournament
Exhibit A

Heinekens Star 永鉛温霞艶姻
Heineken realised that their status as Headline Sponsor was
          no longer a conversational guarantee
The team also realised that Be a
man of the world had to be brought
   alive in an extraordinary way

                Heinekens UEFA Mission
 To connect Heineken drinkers to football and give them
     the best UEFA Champions League experience by
        enforcing their man of the world status

How the NBA is building a Global
 Audience using digital media
The NBAs strategy

Make a local sport global
This year, the NBA finals will be
 watched by fans on television,
online or mobile devices in more
       than 215 countries
The NBAs Digital Mantra
Provide fans the content they want, when they want it
                  where they want it.

    Always ask: How will this enhance the fans
        experience? What are their needs?
The big tune in tweet
 "#NBAFinals: Dwyane Wade is putting shots
  up by himself on the floor right now. Game
  2, 9pm/et ABC. http:// twitvid.com/MJQS5"

                             Shot entirely on the iPhone of a
                              NBA social media scout and
                            tweeted in real time as a reminder
                             for people to get ready to watch
                                       the game...
NBA Game time application




A free mobile app available on iPad, Android, iPhone and Blackberry  2.5m
                         downloaded this season
NBA.com




More than 2.5bn videos streamed this season  the sites video views have more than
  doubled in a year . Fully integrated with the leagues social media channels and it
saw over 8million unique hits per day! (up 78% from 2010). Over half the sites traffic
                                    is international
Player stats




The new Stats Cube  allows fans to do direct statistical comparisons between players
 even down to how they perform in the last 5 minutes of a game. You can create and
test how your own imaginary line-ups might work  (shades of You be the coach?). It
  also helps you play out a myriad of scenarios and make your own prediction for the
                                         game

   Using motion picture techniques to
 create a larger than life heroism about
                the game
Tweets about Tweets
Nikes EPIC family tracks how many tweets are going out about top NBA players...the
                    most tweeted ones rise to the top of the family
Social Media: The NBA Stats
    compared to the Twitter Context
 On a normal day, Twitter users tweet 65 million
  tweets or 2 billion tweets a month

 That translates to about 750 tweets per second

 Group stage of World Cup 2010 saw 2700 tweets
  per second

 NBA finals game 7 in 2011 saw 3085 tweets per
  second  more than 185 000 tweets per minute
Some of the guidelines the NBA
           lives by
Some key principles which the NBA
      Social Media team lives by.
1. Make fans feel like insiders

2. Dont join the conversation , create the conversation

3. Know what your readers want, when they want it

4. Dont overwhelm your followers

5. Plan ahead  not everyday has a big game
