He recalled how the media can reach larger audience and promote football events and sponsorships through various platforms such as television, radio, print, and online media. And one way the media promotes football is through coverage of football events, chairman further noted.
“As previously stated, the media has always been the focal point of any football game that is the way they interview, report, analyses, and disseminates information before, during and after every game which matters a lot would make or mar the emotions of every individual therefore we all need to come together and look for better way to push football to the people (fans) out there and also bring back the glamour past generations have enjoyed even when there was no adequate media publicity. Likewise, credibility and integrity are the fundamental truth to Football reporting,” he recalled.
He posited, at this juncture, it is important to emphasize that we all should be aware of the importance of media assignment ahead of us. That is how we can rebrand the media section of all the football committees set up, looking into the challenges of football media, getting standardized equipment that will ease the project, creating website that accessible to everyone, rebranding the public affairs of the media.
