With the 2017/18 Sky Bet EFL season kicking off this weekend the EFL has launched a social media campaign to celebrate the global fan-base following EFL clubs week in and week out.
Fans visiting EFL.com/iFollowEFL have the opportunity to tag their location wherever they are in the world and upload an image showing their support for Coventry City.
Fans will also have the opportunity to share their image across Facebook and Twitter under the hashtag #iFollowEFL.
Fans taking part and showing their club colours before 4th September will be entered into a draw to win tickets to one of Sky Blues’ home games this season, travel and two night’s accommodation, a Mitre Delta Replica EFL Football and a copy of FIFA18 Icon Addition courtesy of EA Sports, who were recently announced as an Official Partner of the EFL and the first sponsor of the ground-breaking new digital streaming service, iFollow.
It is hoped that the campaign will celebrate the truly global nature of the EFL and the amazing support clubs such as the Sky Blues receive both at home and overseas. The 2017/18 season will see the EFL broadcast or streamed into 166 countries with a reach of almost 614 million households across Asia, Africa, the Americas, Europe, the Middle East and Oceania; reinforcing the EFL’s reputation as one of the most watched competitions in world football.
In addition, the opening weekend of the season marks the first Sky Bet EFL fixtures to be live streamed on Coventry City’s new digital platform, iFollow, which is set to revolutionise the way fans overseas can follow their club.
