Day 5 of Independent Study
January 8th, 2018
Today in my independent study, I went to the office again. The day began with Yogesh going over in-depth on some of the training routines. The drills were very intense; some of them were very complicated, and some of them were simple. For one of the dribbling drills, I thought of a way that you could make the drill into a two-person drill, and he took my input into consideration. It's really cool to see the differences in the intensity of the drills between high school soccer (which I've played), and professional soccer, even if the team is in a low division. I then spent most of the rest of the day working on social media. I thought of a couple good ideas. I thought a cool idea for a post would be a simple picture of two players having fun together, and saying "character over everything". That's a nice simple post, that embodies many of this club's values. A lot of what the team preaches is about respect, and putting the team above yourself, and I think I could embody that spirit with a post like that. The graphics won't be too hard for that one so they will probably be posted in a timely manner. Another side project that I'm doing is with Tim, a guy I mentioned in the previous entry. We're working on designing a poster, that's an acrostic poem that reads "PROFESSIONALISM" in Fateh Hyderabad spirit. I always thought acrostics were a little cheesy, but I think it works here, as the club does like to put its heart on its sleeve. I thought it would be a good idea to show some interaction between a coach and a player in the background of the acrostic, along with the classic Fateh Hyderabad logo. Tim said this was supposed to be hung up so the players could see it, but I also requested that we post it on social media as well, so the fans could further take in this great message. After looking at some of the other second division club's social media, it's made me appreciate the professionalism that this club holds, and I'm happy to share that. Though I've never seen this club play, I'm happy to say that I'm apart of the organization. I've been treated with a lot of respect, and I hope to pay the club back with better branding and social media. Sometimes my tasks get redundant, but I do find social media fascinating, so it's okay. Today was a good day. Another one in the books!
