Game day graphics your coaches can post before the bus leaves
A game day post tells fans who you play, when, and where to show up. Rocket Graphics gives every team a gameday template with your logo and colors already on it, so the post goes up in about a minute instead of after practice.

Why it matters
Game day posts depend on whoever has time
Football gets a polished graphic while JV soccer gets a phone photo of the schedule, or nothing. Coaches want to post but don’t have design software or a free hour. Fans miss games they would have come to.
Ideas for Game Day Graphics
Opponent and matchup
Lead with your team versus the opponent in big type. Fans scroll fast, so the matchup should read at thumbnail size.
Time, date and location
List the start time, the date and the field or gym. For away games, add the town so families know how far to drive.
Level and sport
Say varsity, JV or freshman along with the sport. Parents of younger players look for their level first.
An action photo
Use a recent photo of a player from this team instead of a stock image. A face fans know gets more shares.
Ticket or stream details
If tickets are sold online or the game is streamed, put the link in the caption. Keep the graphic itself clean.
Theme night callouts
Add a line for pink out, white out or student section themes. It gives students a reason to come and to share the post.
How it works with Social Media Graphics
Game Day Graphics, step by step.
Three steps
Open the gameday template
Start from the gameday design instead of a blank page. Your school logo and colors are already in place.
Fill in the matchup
Type the opponent, date, time and location, then drop in a photo and nudge it into position. The layout holds no matter what you type.
Download and post
Export a PNG in square, portrait, story or landscape shape and share it with your caption.
Setups vary by school; your demo confirms what yours will use.

Game Day Graphics tips
Post the morning of the game
A morning post catches parents before work and students before first period. A story reminder an hour before start time helps too.
Use one template all season
Fans learn to spot your game day look in their feed. Change the photo and the facts, not the design.
Give every level a turn
Make JV and freshman posts with the same template as varsity. It costs a coach one minute, and families notice.
Check the facts twice
Confirm time and location against the master schedule before posting. A wrong start time causes more trouble than no post.
