How can I improve my local basketball club supporter base?

Question

I was recently appointed president of my local university basketball club. The team is top four in a decent league and struggles to get over 40 fans to home games even when other clubs who are lower on the table get over 300 to home games. The standard of basketball is not great but it is still good to watch. What can I do to get more fans and more people to home games? What does your local sporting club do? Any marketing ideas you guys can give me?

Answer 1

try showing support in the community ...people really like that kind of stuff by athletes

Answer 2

Answer 3

who cares about fans its for the kids.... they dont play to see how many fans they can get its just for fun

Answer 4

Emilio is right get your players out in the community, give away some tickets even if it is free anyway. Target younger kids as they usually bring an adult or a friend the games as well. Good Luck
