The Saints compete in the National League South at Clarence Park
with a capacity of close to 5,000 and an annual footfall of around
25,000.

The club provides extensive digital branding opportunities with regular
monthly digital impressions in excess of 500k. We have a significant
reach both locally and internationally with over 13k Twitter followers,
3k Facebook likes, 5k Instagram followers & 600 YouTube Subscribers.

Our followers are also very engaged with our brand - for example, on
Facebook our posts reach in excess of 6k users every month and on
Instagram, our visuals regularly gain more than 23k impressions in a
week. Every month we achieve on average 22k views across Google
search and Google maps as well as 15k+ unique monthly visits to the
club website.

The nature of football also means that we will often see a video of
great play on the field go viral. One great passing move and goal at
Clarence Park recently resulted in more than 2 million impressions on
Instagram. A run in the FA Cup will attract the attention of the BBC, Sky
Sports and other Broadcast Media. The Vanarama National League
also regularly shares our content across their social media platforms,
and the league’s partners, BT Sport, will often showcase a game at
Clarence Park during the season.

The club prides itself on building long-lasting relationships with the
business community, and last season, during the global pandemic,
St Albans City F.C achieved the fastest growing digital presence in their
division, so there truly has never been a better time to get your brand
involved.
