SPORTFIVE to Provide Concacaf with Comprehensive Digital Services for National Team Competitions

Global agency with expertise in association football marketing to enhance the governing body’s digital presence across multiple competitions, starting with the 2023 Nations League Finals and Gold Cup

Global sports marketing agency SPORTFIVE will provide a variety of digital services to The Confederation of North, Central America, and Caribbean Association Football (Concacaf) for its national team competitions. The agency supported the 2023 Nations League Final in Las Vegas last weekend and will also support the 2023 Gold Cup group stage which gets underway this weekend.

SPORTFIVE will work with Concacaf to enhance the governing body’s digital presence, with a focus on establishing a stronger connection with fans, players, and commercial partners, and fostering collaboration among the Member Associations. Among other services, the agency will manage the digital content strategy and execution for Concacaf national team competitions, including the 2023 Gold Cup, 2022/23 Nations League Finals, 2023 Road to W Gold Cup, 2023/24 Nations League, and the 2024 W Gold Cup.

SPORTFIVE’s work will include the development of year-round content in both Spanish and English to grow audience, broaden reach, elevate fan engagement, and increase the commercial value of Concacaf’s social media channels and other digital content.

SPORTFIVE will help Concacaf provide fans at all interest levels with improved access to exciting football action, including with real-time updates, live-match coverage, and dynamic off-the-pitch content. SPORTFIVE will also oversee the end-to-end production of digital assets, including creative design, visuals, video, reels, and more.

“We are proud to help Concacaf and bring the best football from across the region to more fans both within the region and around the world,” said Karim Fathi, Vice President of Digital, Americas at SPORTFIVE. “With the football world preparing to turn its focus to North America in 2026, there is a growing appetite to see the best of the game from across the region. Using our extensive experience in football marketing and digital fan engagement globally, we look forward to working with Concacaf and its member countries to connect with more fans across various digital platforms.”
