Football is Entertainment For all the Family

The Problem

There used to be a time when football was a habit that was passed down from one generation to the next. Now, it has become a sport that people might casually enjoy when they are young, but they largely take it off as they enter their adult years. It has been noticed that today’s generation is turning their backs on football because it’s no longer entertaining or accessible for all. The main reason for the downfall is that football is no longer entertaining for all. People are not willing to spend the money on the tickets or don’t have time to go to the stadium. The industry has noticed a dramatic fall in attendances at stadiums, and an overall drop in the popularity of the sport.

You can watch live matches on TV, or catch highlights of the game whenever you like. You can also stream football games online or catch up on your tablet or mobile device.

Change the format of football advertising

Most football stadiums and sports bars are hosting matches on TV. That’s an old concept. A younger audience is looking for an experience, not just a match on TV. The brands have been spending their marketing dollars on TV and print ads. They are still doing the same thing that their parents enjoyed. To make a difference, it’s important to change the format of the advertising. TV and Print are still valid mediums for football marketing, but it’s important to change the format of the content so that younger people engage with it and find it appealing. Let’s say you are hosting a football match at a sports bar. You need to include the following:

- Show a live feed of football matches or highlights.

- Feature a football quiz where the winner gets football merchandise.

- Let people try out virtual reality headsets with football matches or VR football training.

- Serve food that is football-themed and drinks that go with it.

- Create a social media contest where people can submit their football pictures or videos.

Start with children to develop a habit

Children are the most impressionable age group. They are more likely to develop a lifestyle or activity if it’s introduced to them in a fun way. Parents are the only way to reach children and teach them about the sport. The football clubs or associations must reach out to children and parents. From an early age, parents should take their children to football clubs. That’s why clubs and associations need to offer a variety of activities for people of all ages and fitness levels. For example, at clubs and associations, people can practice football with children, train with their peers, or play in a league against other adults.

Integrate VR and AR in the stadiums

The stadiums are the biggest places of entertainment. But it’s important to integrate the use of VR and AR at the stadiums. You can integrate augmented reality at the stadiums:

- You can place boards with football content, which people can view using their smartphones.

- You can install a VR headset that people can use to watch football content.

- You can also place interactive virtual reality football games in the stadiums, where people can play with their friends.

- You can also have AR football cards with your favorite team’s players.
