T-Birds on Social Media
Facebook is just the beginning…

So you’re following the Seattle Thunderbirds on Facebook. Maybe you’re even keeping up with them on Twitter. But did you know that the team has a presence all over the web?

Maybe you thought Pinterest was just for crafty people. It’s true that the site has tons of cool crafts, handyman projects and even recipes to make, but it’s also a great place to organize your Thunderbird news and links. Don’t believe it? Just check out the Thunnderbirds’ Pinterest page to see Cool Bird quotes, game day recipes, news, scouting information, and even photos of fans in the Seattle streets. You can even pin your favorite team gear and find out all about the game itself with the “Hockey 101” board.

Who doesn’t love Instagram? See the latest T-Bird photos at the Thunderbirds’ Instagram account. Follow to see some of the team’s goofiest candid shots as well as promo picks that will give away key season hints and tips—like who to follow, who’s new to the team and who they’re watching for next season. You can even see some personal details and school photos of the players, like Luke Osterman in his Eagle Scouts uniform. It’s a great place to match player faces with names, especially for kids and new fans.

Do you connect with people professionally on LinkedIn? You can also connect with the Birds there as a company. Although hockey is a sport, people often forget about the professional business aspect of managing a team. Whether you’re a sportswriter, a coach or just want to rub elbows with the T-Birds management, you can check them out.

Don’t forget that you can also check out the Birds on Sporcle, where you can have a blast answering trivia questions about your favorite hockey team! Choose from quizzes like Top 10 All-Time Rookie Assist Leaders, Top 10 All-Time Rookie Penalty Minutes and many other fun games.

And if social networks weren’t enough, you can also stay in the loop with the official Seattle Thunderbirds iPhone, Android and Blackberry applications. All of the apps are free for download and feature information like team rosters, game schedules, standings, news and other great T-Bird facts. You can even check out the latest promotions during the T-Birds home games. With the app you will never miss a game.

Are you an old-fashioned e-mail kind of fan? Be sure to stay up to date with the latest T-Bird information with the team’s e-mail blasts. Sign up to get it delivered right in your inbox.
