Jamaica Netball Association Relaunched Website

I may have missed this relaunched date for the new and improve Jamaica Netball Association Website but I recently stumbled on the new look and I am impressed. There is no second guessing as to where you are and the front page of the website offers a vibrant and sporty feel. This is captured in the use of images that provides the central focus to the web site look and feel.

Netball is a popular sport in Jamaica and the country ranks consistently in the top five countries across the globe. Like any other successful sports association, players and people behind the scene is highlighted across the website.

The Jamaica National Netball association website encourages visitor engagement through a discussion board, blogs section and a find a player feature. While the discussion board seems to be in its infancy, the site managers should ensure that a person is dedicated to manage the forum. This can also be said about its blog, it is critical that content remains fresh and relevant.

This is obviously a step in the right direction and I am looking forward to the addition of Web 2.0 functionalities (Twitter, Facebook etc) that will help to expand this website audience.
