IN an exciting development, Draft Central has created a brand new YouTube channel and is set to provide keen draft enthusiasts with some exciting content in the days leading up to Wednesday’s 2020 AFL Draft.
Launched just this week, the channel’s first video is up. Catch a glimpse of the Draft Central team led by Chief Editor Peter Williams, as he gives a teaser to what content is to come this week. In the build up to draft day on December 9, a former NAB League coach will join us, we’ll have our phantom draft published, a bidding system explainer video uploaded, and a Q&A special featured all within a couple of days.
With club-by-club reviews to look forward to post-draft, there will be something for everybody as the team looks to expand its AFL Draft coverage heading into 2021. Looking beyond the AFL Draft, there will also be content for the Under 18s competitions next year for both boys and girls, as well as mixed sports content.
For now, the team is looking to build its YouTube subscriber base, so be sure to hit that subscribe button to not miss out on any content in the lead-up or post-draft next week.
