UX Writing Challenge: Day 7

From:

--
Scenario: A sports fan is at a wedding while their favorite team plays against their arch-rivals. Their team scores.

Challenge: How would you, quickly, let the sports fan know about the latest play, the current score, and the key players? Write it.

Headline: 30 characters max
Body: 45 characters max

--

Headline: [Team], TOUCHDOWN!

Body: [Team] [score] - [opposing team] [score]

Why I chose this:

  1. Clear and Direct: immediately informs the fan about the team’s success
  2. Concise: Does not overload the user with other information on scoring. I do not know anything about sports
  3. Emphasis on key elements: easy to grasp the important details
  4. Consistency: standard format for score reporting helps maintain clarity across similar messages
  5. Relatability: Sports fans expect to hear about big plays like a touchdown immediately

Conclusion

This approach effectively balances brevity with the need for clarity and relevance, making it perfect for quick communication during an exciting game moment.
