Below are the slides I used to give when I spoke, along with Daren Forsyth, at a UK Sport conference with some of the National Governing Bodies present, all eager to learn more.

It gave a pretty top line overview as to what is currently going on in the world of social media and the impact this is having upon sport.  We went through the Opportunities that were now being presented and also the threats that this new world is bringing (as we have seen from many back and front page headlines over the last couple of years).

The aim was to open a window into this world as we realise it can be scary and the easy option is to pretend it doesn’t exist.  We wanted to make it a bit less scary, answer any of the concerns being raised by those there and create enthusiasm to get involved and be pro-active.

I’ll be sharing more presentations in the coming days from other people that I hope you will find even more interesting.  Any questions please fire away on here or email me at daniel@theuksportsnetwork.com
