Run the build-up to opening day

An Event Campaign times messages around one date the league sets, like opening day.

What this helps you do

An Event Campaign sends different messages timed around one date: the Opening Day starter sends two weeks out, a week out, two days out, on the morning itself and the day after. The date is the one the league sets; the Hub never detects the start of a season. Move the date and the unsent messages move with it. Someone added late receives only what hasn't happened yet.

When to use it

Create it once the league has set opening day, with the schedule link ready.

How to do it

  • Open Campaigns and create an Event Campaign from the Opening Day starter.
  • Pick the one audience, usually Whole League, and set the date.
  • Put the schedule link in each step, and adjust the wording to your league.
  • Activate it. For a same-morning decision, send an ordinary message; the campaign carries the planned build-up.

Example

A league sets opening day for the second Saturday in September. The campaign tells everyone where the schedule lives, the venue and parking details, how a weather call will reach them, and on the morning that any change comes from the league. When rain pushes opening day a week, the league moves the date and the rest of the messages move with it.

Good to know

  • The same shape works for a registration window or championship weekend. Matchups, results and brackets stay in your league system; link to them.
  • The Hub doesn't know who played, attended or advanced.
  • Event Campaigns are part of Hub Pro, which unlocks at $500 in cumulative qualifying Blast Credit purchases for any organization.
