​It's been a very busy week here at BotP Towers. A match last Saturday and another on Tuesday evening, followed by a trip out to Vienna (non-football related unfortunately) and, as Twitter followers might have noticed, the formation of an exciting partnership with Sports Shots.

As the team at Sports Shots pointed out in their Friday announcement, there is a great synergy between the ethos of the two sites. Both have a focus on promoting sports whilst trying to raise awareness of, and fund-raise for, their chosen charities. In the case of Sports Shots this is both Macmillan Cancer Support and Vasculitis UK. Figures up to September of this year show that they have raised a fantastic £5,991.24 split evenly between their two causes. Their website and Facebook page both have over 1,000 followers and fans and their website has had over 11 million hits from around the world.

​I love the model that they have applied to their venture, allowing free use of their reports and images for club websites, Facebook pages, and programmes as well as supplying local newspapers with images free of charge. All of this is a great asset to the local sporting community. Sports Shots does not aim to gain from any of these services, just an accrediation for their media with an aim to boosting awareness of their charities.

Take a look at the web site here, http://sportsshots.org.uk/ follow on Twitter - @sportsshotsnews and check out Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/SportsShots/

​ll in all, these are exciting times for Base of the Pyramid. This season has seen Twitter follower numbers climb above the 1600 mark and the website page views topping 3,000 per week at times. The addition of Charlie Marriott - @thecharliem - as an additional match blogger has also been a great boost to the site and his blogs have added some good numbers to the footfall on the site.

Keep an eye on this site and the Sports Shots site for news of future collaborations.
