I’m putting together a run of community-focused news articles that uncover the human stories lying behind our local sports events. Rather than standard match reports, I want pieces that spotlight the people who make grassroots sport happen—athletes, volunteers, coaches, parents, even devoted fans—showing how each event shapes and reflects the community around it. Here’s what I need from you: • A series of well-researched, publication-ready articles (800-1,000 words each) centred on sports events in the area • A clear human-interest angle in every story, weaving quotes and colour that bring the subjects to life • Original reporting: phone or on-site interviews, fact-checking, and accurate attribution • Clean copy delivered in Word or Google Docs, ready for editorial layout Versions needed for both website content and emailed to local publications List of publication contacts/journalists I’ll supply the initial event list and initial story details; you’ll flesh out the narrative, set up interviews, and craft compelling copy to deadline. Familiarity with AP style, strong interviewing skills, and a genuine passion for grassroots sport will set you apart.

Hello, This project immediately caught my attention because it goes beyond reporting scores. The best community sports stories are about the people behind the events, and that's exactly where my experience lies. I'm an experienced journalist, editor, and content writer with a background covering grassroots sport, interviewing athletes, organisers, volunteers, and community members to produce engaging, publication-ready stories. I understand how to find the human angle that turns an event into a story readers actually connect with. For each article, I will: • Research the event thoroughly and verify all facts. • Conduct interviews by phone or online (and on-site where practical). • Develop a compelling human-interest narrative rather than a simple match report. • Deliver polished, publication-ready articles of 800-1,000 words in AP style. • Supply website-ready and publication-ready versions in Word or Google Docs. • Compile a contact list of relevant local publications and journalists where required. My background in journalism, digital media, and storytelling means I write copy that's accurate, engaging, and deadline-driven while maintaining editorial standards. I pride myself on clear communication, reliable turnaround times, and producing content that reflects the heart of the community, not just the final score. I'd be excited to help bring these stories to life.

I'm comfortable working from your initial event list and story details and taking ownership of the reporting and narrative from there through to a polished final draft.

For each assignment, I'll start by reviewing the event details and any background you provide, then reach out promptly to schedule interviews with the key people involved — athletes, coaches, volunteers, or parents — aiming to speak with at least two or three subjects per piece to give the story depth and multiple perspectives. I'll conduct interviews by phone or in person depending on availability, taking detailed notes and recording (with permission) to ensure quotes are captured accurately. Once reporting is complete, I'll fact-check names, titles, scores, dates, and any factual claims before writing. Each article will open with a strong human-interest hook rather than a standard lede, weave in direct quotes and sensory detail to bring subjects to life, and close with a clear sense of how the event connects to the wider community. All copy will be written in clean AP style, proofread, and delivered as a ready-to-format Word or Google Doc within your specified deadline — with a version suited for direct web publishing and, where relevant, a tailored pitch version for outreach to local publications. I'll also flag early if a story needs more time (e.g., a source is hard to reach) so there are no last-minute surprises, and I'm happy to do a short trial piece first so you can confirm the fit before committing to the full series

I understand that you aren't looking for standard match reports; you are looking for the 'soul' behind the event. My approach to journalism is rooted in behavioral analysis and storytelling—I don’t just report on what happened; I uncover why it matters to the community. I have strong interviewing skills and a background that allows me to cut through the surface to reach the real, human narrative. I specialize in turning complex or overlooked stories into compelling, publication-ready copy. I am selective about my projects because I prefer work that demands both intellectual rigor and emotional depth. If you want a writer who will treat your project with the care of a deep-dive investigation rather than just another assignment, I would be happy to take this on. I am comfortable with the requirements, including AP style and delivering clean, ready-to-publish work.
