You should create a community for your team so when people come here looking they’ll find a community ready to welcome them
I've tried to do this but can't seem to find a clear and concise guide. From what I read, only admins can create communities?
Check out our baseball community's sidebar for your favorite team. Try searching [email protected] (and give it a minute if someone on your instance hasn't already found us).
Fanaticus is a sports-only instance. We've ported over a game bot and have created communities for all the major sports teams. If you're interested in moderating one of the communities, just ask!

Ah I didn’t realise you had to be an admin. Maybe reply to the below thread with a proposal for your community
