Weekly Sports Content Review Worksheet
Copy a weekly sports content review worksheet for goals, evidence, preparation effort, audience questions, and a clear next-week action.
Use this worksheet to close one content week and open the next. It is designed for a short conversation between the people supplying facts, preparing content, and publishing it.
Choose a small set of posts with a clear purpose. Reviewing every available metric for every post can create more work without improving the plan.
Record the week and sources
Write the date range, accounts covered, person collecting the information, and when the review takes place. Note the metric source and reporting window. If a measure is not available, record it as unavailable rather than substituting a different number with the same label.
Copy the post review table
| Post and public URL | Intended reader task | Evidence and source | Preparation effort | Question or problem | Next action |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| To select | To define | To record | To estimate honestly | To describe | To assign |
Keep counts tied to what they actually represent. A destination visit is not a completed registration. A displayed account metric is not a verified attendance figure. If attribution is missing, keep traffic and outcomes separate.
Review content delivery
Ask whether the planned posts actually published, whether facts changed, and whether anything needed correction. Record the handoff that caused delay rather than blaming an individual for a vague process.
A fictional team's review might find that its Friday reminder was held because the final venue confirmation arrived late. The next action could be a Thursday confirmation deadline with a backup contact. More caption ideas would not solve that particular problem.
Review audience usefulness
Choose the questions that reveal what readers needed. Did the event post explain the next step? Could a new family find the registration destination? Did a community story lead to relevant responses?
Use available analytics to add context, then read the response itself. A post can attract interactions while leaving the practical question unanswered. Conversely, a concise information update may complete its job without a large public discussion.
Review the cost of the workflow
Record preparation time, missing assets, repeated clarification, and review bottlenecks. Use estimates consistently and label them as estimates. The aim is to find a manageable format the team can sustain.
If one person must check every detail, identify which ordinary facts a backup can confirm under the organization's process. Do not use an efficiency exercise to bypass required media or communications review.
Choose the next action
| Decision field | Complete this sentence |
|---|---|
| Keep | We will repeat this useful element because… |
| Change | We will adjust this specific part of the process… |
| Owner | The person responsible is… |
| Evidence | We will look for this observable result… |
| Review date | We will check the change on… |
One completed action is more useful than a long list nobody owns. Make sure the action appears in the next content calendar, not only in the review notes.
Carry the record forward
Save the worksheet with the week it describes. When comparing periods, check that the metrics, reporting windows, and types of content are comparable. Treat explanations as hypotheses until repeated evidence supports them.
Use the review examples for practical reasoning and the sports calendar template to make the next action visible to the publishing team.
