How Digital LED Boards Can Foster Team Spirit in Your Community
When you think about Friday night lights, what comes to mind? Is it the football team entering the stadium? The celebration after a touchdown? Or the countdown to the final snap? All of these have one thing in common—team spirit. If your fans have team spirit, the crowd stays engaged, the players are more motivated, and the games become more enjoyable. A community with team spirit is tight-knit, driven, and loyal—with fans coming back for more.
So how can you use an LED scoreboard to foster team spirit?
A Better Game Experience
Whether fans realize it or not, scoreboards are a way of personally connecting with their team during games; it’s a way for an entire stadium to share an experience simultaneously. Scoreboards keep spectators updated on scores, penalties, and how much time is left on the clock.
Digital LED displays can take your games to the next level, providing up-to-the-minute scores, possession markers, and high-quality live videos of the action on the field. Every fan will be on the edge of their seats with these features, anticipating the next snap. LED displays can transform a static tool for keeping score into the centerpiece for an immersive fan experience that cultivates team spirit—and a community with great team spirit comes back for the next game.
Develop Personal Connections
What’s the best way to make a fan feel like they are a part of a game? Give them a personal connection with the team on the field! A fan is more likely to keep coming back if they form an attachment with the game, whether it’s a player, a drill team member, or a marching band performance. Your LED display can foster a connection with the action by flashing information about the students on the screen, bringing the story of a student into the game.
When a player kicks a field goal or makes an interception, his player statistics and photo can display on the screen. Live, close-up video shown on the LED scoreboard can bring each parent closer to their student as they perform during the halftime show or as they join their bandmates in their fight song. Your attendees’ school spirit will grow as they become die-hard fans of the students they have come to know by witnessing their gameday experience up close and personal on the LED display system.
Create More Moments to Cheer
LED displays can also be utilized as a tool to prompt the crowd. When the home team scores a touchdown, the scoreboard can lead the spectators in a celebratory chant, elevating the camaraderie among the crowd and the players. There is no better feeling than joining in your school’s fight song with hundreds of other fans.
What’s the easiest way to promote team spirit? Show team spirit. Use your LED display to play videos of fans decked out in team colors, doing cheers at home, or leading the fight song.
Remind your crowd that their fun doesn’t have to stop when the clock runs out—keep your attendees coming back all season long! Use your LED system to display the schedule for the next few game times, the status of your team’s play-offs, or a countdown to the state championship.
