LETHBRIDGE HERALD

Lethbridge Sport Council has developed a new website to help local sport organizations reach out to more of the community. The high-quality content and easy-to-navigate design will serve as a resource for parents, athletes, coaches, and sport leaders.

The newly redesigned site features information on the signature SportFest and Lethbridge Sport Council Achievement Awards, and partnered events including: Board Leadership Lethbridge; Team Lethbridge at the Southern Alberta Summer Games; and Fast and Female Champ Chat. The Events Page also features larger local events and a calendar for grassroots spectator-friendly events.

The improved Sport Director includes local, provincial and national sport organizations, but LSC is most excited about the enhanced member listings, it said in a news release. Member organizations now have the option to include photos, videos, social media links and information about their facilities to their listing. Lethbridge Minor Softball Association’s page is a great example of an enhanced member listing. LSC said it looks forward to adding these details to all of its members’ enhanced listings.

The website is fully responsive and can easily be navigated through a multitude of devices, including desktops, laptops, mobile devices and tablets.

“We are excited to launch our new website to our community members looking for sport-related resources or local sport opportunities,” said Susan Eymann, LSC executive director, in the release. “This website redesign will make it easier for sport organizations and potential participants to connect with one another. Our robust sport directory, enhanced member listings and filterable resource collection will be a valuable asset for parents, athletes, coaches and organizations.”

The News section has a modern sleek design, multimedia posts, including articles and stories about sport-related best practices, celebrating local sport achievements and promoting sport events.

The website also features an improved Community Room Booking process, making it easier for members and non-members to book the space for their events and track their own bookings.
