ABOUT

Virtual Sports Desk was launched during the
COVID-19 pandemic to ensure that the accomplishments college student-athletes continued to be recognized as they pursued their academic and athletic goals at the next level.
With campuses closed but games still being played, we found innovative ways to keep coverage going during this unprecedented period.
We are a team of former and part-time sports information directors and multimedia experts who recognized that many programs were missing this vital resource. Virtual Sports Desk is a remote sports information service capable of producing content, graphics, stories, and managing PrestoSports platforms.
As the pandemic eased restrictions and the world of sports started to return to normalcy, we were asked to continue providing our services to programs that didn’t have the ability to hire a full-time or part-time sports information personnel. And that is how Virtual Sports Desk was born.

BEYOND SCORES, HOW DO YOU UNCOVER THE FULL STORY OF A GAME, INCLUDING PLAYER AND COACHES QUOTES?At Virtual Sports Desk, we ensure your program's successes and stories are captured and shared the moment they happen. Our dedicated team is accessible 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, meaning coaching staff can connect with us immediately after any contest, even on weekends, to report results. This real-time communication allows us to deliver timely updates to your audience. But we do more than just report scores. We specialize in uncovering the "stories within the story," adding a crucial personal touch with direct quotes from your staff and players. We actively encourage two-way communication with every member of your program, fostering a collaborative environment that ensures accuracy and depth in every piece we create. Understanding that every coach has a preferred communication style, we offer flexible options. For those who might be shy or simply pressed for time, we highly recommend text messages. Coaches can send us brief replies or bullet points, and our team will expertly expand these into compelling, full-length stories. Once a story is published on your website, we ensure maximum reach by distributing it across all your social media streams. Another powerful element we provide is the ability to schedule recorded Zoom interviews. Fans absolutely love these video interviews because they offer a truly personal touch, allowing them to see the genuine emotion and passion of a player or coach. For programs looking to build a consistent connection, coaches can even schedule weekly video discussions to recap successes and challenges, effectively turning these interviews into a dynamic, ongoing "Vlog" for your community. With Virtual Sports Desk, your program gains a dedicated, always-on partner committed to delivering your narrative with speed, depth, and authentic engagement.

HOW DO YOU HANDLE GRAPHIC REQUESTS?We understand the need for speed in sports. In most cases, we can deliver a custom graphic within 24 hours. For more intricate designs, such as comprehensive team posters, large banners, or detailed season schedules, we would require additional lead time to ensure the highest quality. However, for urgent, high-impact graphics celebrating significant achievements—like conference championships, individual accolades, record-setting performances, or MVP honors—we prioritize these moments and can typically turn them around quickly. Furthermore, on those rare, truly extraordinary occasions when something truly remarkable happens, we have the capability to turn around a crucial graphic immediately.
-
WE DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO A TEAM PHOTOGRAPHERA key component of our service is our ability to integrate high-quality photos seamlessly. We encourage programs with existing team photographers to grant us access to specific galleries, allowing us to pull or access player-specific photos as needed. For programs without a dedicated team photographer, we offer a valuable solution: we can dispatch one of our professional photographers to capture dynamic action shots during games. Furthermore, we also provide the service of taking consistent headshots of each team member, ensuring that all images are uniform and universally applicable across your various platforms.
-
DO YOU HAVE ABILITY TO WORK WITH JUST ONE TEAM?While we can certainly partner with your entire athletic program, we understand that sometimes a full program-wide sign-up isn't feasible. That's why we offer the flexibility to work directly with individual teams. We make it easy for your team to leverage our services, even if the broader athletic department isn't fully enrolled. We can effectively manage your social media presence, create compelling graphics, and provide other tailored services designed to grow your team's fan base and keep your supporters actively engaged.
