The Phoenix Suns’ award-winning digital department has launched a new community website, fans.suns.com, offering Suns fans a unique online forum to meet, chat, and share their purple and orange pride.
An extension to the team’s official website Suns.com, the new “Fan Hub” allows fans to discuss the team within message boards, write and post blogs, and share their personal photos from games or in their favorite Suns gear. Fans who upload photos of their best “game face” also have the opportunity to win tickets to upcoming Suns home games.
The site, which is presented by Southwest Airlines, also incorporates all of the team’s official social media channels, including Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Google+, Foursquare, and Instagram.
Fans who create their own profiles within the site, or who log in using their Facebook credentials, will earn points for their participation and can compete with fellow fans for position on the Hub’s leaderboards.
Additional features that will be rolled out in the coming year include fan video contests, as well as a live chat and scoreboard on Suns game nights.
Single-game tickets are still available for the Suns-Lakers game on Saturday, April 7. Fans can purchase theirs today at Suns.com/tickets or by calling 1-800-4NBA-TIX.
