MAKE IT YOUR OWN This event can be covered with as little as a group of eager students with smartphones, or you can bring out the heavy equipment. The more equipment you bring, the more professional the event feels.

The basketball coach also gives us some background notes a few days before the event to help us prep questions. Sometimes you can have some very shy players when they are placed in front of a group, so having ver y tailored questions can ease that tension and make the team feel your reporters know what they are talking about. W H AT A R E THE G OA LS? If nothing else, after this event we hope that the players and coaches know the reporters, and that those reporters feel comfortable talking to the coaches and players. The team photo and the mugshots help the yearbook, web, newspaper and broadcast staffs out by having stock footage to use in the various coverage. They also are given to the team so they can produce their own marketing m at er ia l s l i ke p os t er s , r o s t e r s a nd schedu le s. A good work i ng relationship goes a long way.
