GET INTO THE CONVERSATION

Getting insights and news via email is great, but there's so much untapped knowledge in our community. We want to open up the floor and hear from everyone. That's why we launched a WhatsApp Group focused on value-additive conversations.

SAY HELLO!

Once you’re in, kick things off by introducing yourself in the SP Intros channel.

 

Share your name, a bit about your background, and what you’re into. Add your LinkedIn link—it’s a great way to connect!

2

NO SELF PROMO, PLEASE

This isn’t a space for unsolicited self-promotion or pitching services. Share ideas, insights, and opportunities that benefit the community. If the group was to become a message board, people would quickly lose interest. For this reason, any Ask you may have for the group should be posted to 'Asks.'

ADD-VALUE MINDSET

Conversations should focus on contributing value -whether that's sharing insights, offering advice, or discussing industry trends. A value-add mindset isn't a nice to have. It's a requirement here. 

Please also maintain a professional tone and respect differing opinions. Any inappropriate behaviour will result in removal from the group. Thank you.

STAY ON TOPIC

Use the correct channels for specific conversations (e.g. SP Chat for general discussions, SP News for updates, SP Job Board for career opportunities). See the guide below to get a better idea how each of the channels works. 

 

Remember that any asks should be submitted to 'Asks' rather than posted into the group.  

To ensure the Sports Pundit WhatsApp group remains valuable and engaging, we’ve established a few ground rules. By joining, you agree to the following:

GETTING STARTED

In order to stay on topic, its worth knowing your way around the various channels within the WhatsApp community...

👋

SP INTROS

Start here! Introduce yourself to the group with a short bio and a link to your LinkedIn profile. This is required to unlock access to the 🔒 members-only channels. Use this space to share who you are, what you do, and what excites you about joining the community.

💬

SP CHAT

This is the heart of the community—a space for general discussions, industry news, and insights on trends shaping sports. Use this channel to spark conversations, ask thoughtful questions, or share an interesting article. A full list of current members is available in the channel description.

📰

SP NEWS

Stay in the loop with Sports Pundit's latest content, including podcast episodes, newsletters, and upcoming events. RSVP links for our in-person Happy Hours in cities like London and New York are also posted here. 

📆

SP EVENTS

Want to meet other members in-person? Whether your attending a conference or simply looking for a networking event in your city, this is the group to share your whereabouts, as well as to organise meet ups among members.  

🧑‍💻

SP JOBS

Looking for your next role or know of an exciting opportunity? This channel is dedicated to job postings shared by and for the community. While we don't officially endorse these roles, many come directly from members of the group.

SP WOMEN ONLY

A private space for women in the Sports Pundit community to connect and engage with one another. To-date, this group has been used for discussing specific opportunities (and challenges) for women working in the industry.
