On this week's Sportego Fan Engagement Podcast we were delighted to be joined by Mary McGuire, the Media and Communications Manager at Basketball Ireland. At our Fan Engagement Conference last month, the governing body for Basketball in Ireland beat out serious competition from the Rowing Ireland and last year's winners the FAI, to receive the award for Best Fan Engagement from an Irish Sporting body. We speak to Mary on the Basketball Ireland social media strategy, and her career thus far. It is an excellent listen, and provides great insights for those who work or would like to work in the social media space.

We hope you enjoy the show, you can find us @WeAreSportego on Twitter, and follow Basketball Ireland @BballIrl

On this week's Sportego Fan Engagement Podcast we were delighted to be joined by Matt Lynch, the Executive Director of Venue Inc. His organisation works to engage front line staff at venues, empowering them to deliver in their role as brand ambassadors. Possessing a wealth of experience in delivering exceptional customer service for some of the world's premier venues, Matt has learnt that when an organisation looks after their staff, they will then look after the customers they interact with. 

Matt will be a keynote speaker at our Conference in Dublin's Aviva Stadium on the 28th.

The General Data Protection Regulation  (GDPR) will apply from 25 May 2018, and it will have vast changes to the way organisations obtain, store and use data on private individuals. Given our work with sporting organisations, enabling them to manage, and derive value from their fan data we felt it would be useful to produce a podcast episode on the topic. 

Here, our COO Colm Ó Méalóid touches on the main aspects of GDPR as they affect sporting organisations. We hope you find it useful, please reach out to us at Sportego.ie or [@WeAreSportego](www.twitter.com/wearesportego) on twitter.
