Lacrosse TV was integrated with the website using Skylab’s MediaTank video platform in order to give England Lacrosse the tools necessary to manage and deliver high definition video to the visitors.
To meet the goals of English Lacrosse, Skylab focused on the following areas:
A custom membership platform was developed to help England Lacrosse manage the vast network of Lacrosse participants such as coaches, players and fans.
Skylab integrated the Lacrosse Talk magazine into the new website, adding fixtures, events, images and video content to help give Lacrosse fans in the UK an online home to share experiences. Social media is at the core of the website and adds value as well as deepens the engagement between the NGB and the community.
ClubFinder was introduced to give website visitors easy access to the various clubs located around England.
