- Abstract
With the advent of social media age, professional basketball clubs are paying more and more attention to the operation of their official social media. This paper takes Guangdong South China Tiger Club, the most successful CBA team, as an example, and analyzes 317 WeChat articles, 54 TikTok videos and 3558 Weibo contents published by the club through text analysis. According to the research, the Tigers pursues matrix building in social media operation, mostly focusing on highlights of matches on WeChat official account (OA), text live broadcast on Weibo, and introduction of players’ daily life in off-season on TikTok. The shortcomings are less fan interaction, content of single style and slow update speed. In this case, this paper argues that the Tigers can increase the interaction with fans, speed up the update speed of videos and articles, strengthen its ability in real-time text live broadcast and other aspects of social media operation, and focus more on the contents that fans want to see and the daily life of players that fans are concerned about.
