WE NEED YOUR HELP
Fancy yourself as a match
reporter, want to reminisce about Astle and Allen, or have you ever fancied
writing your very own regular Baggies’ column?
We are always looking for
people to help with this site, it can be on a regular basis or it can be a
one-off contribution, light-hearted or serious.
We do have the capability to
publish any articles, previews and reports submitted to us onto
NewsNow ‘s Albion newsfeed, meaning that they
would have a potentially large readership.
The site is run purely on a
voluntary basis and therefore you must be prepared to work for no monetary gain.
However, writing for the site and having articles published can lead to
opportunities elsewhere. Over the last couple of years this website has provided
a 'West Brom viewpoint' for amongst others, the 'Irish Examiner' newspaper and
'World Soccer' magazine as well as numerous other websites. Writing for the site
may be suitable for someone looking for a career in journalism who wishes to
gain experience and exposure of their work.
Ideally we we would prefer
people who have previous experience of fanzine-style writing to give the site
more of a fanzine feel. Your grammar does not have to be perfect and any
problems in regards to that can be easily overcome.
We have the following positions
available:-
Match Reporter - Someone
that attends both home and away games would be preferred although it is not
essential. The writing style would perhaps be more relaxed, giving more of a
fans viewpoint rather than a typical straightforward description of the game.
Match Previewer - Must
have a good knowledge of the squad and the Championship in general, keeping up to
date with all the recent games, injuries and suspensions.
Squad
Biographer -
Someone that can provide in-depth profiles for each member of the playing squad
and coaching staff. Ideally the profiles would include information from entire
careers and not just from their Albion one. The statistical side of it is not
important. In time we would also like to profile as many ex-players as possible
and obviously due to the large number involved we are happy for more than one
person to be involved with the profiling.
Diarist - Ideally
someone that follows all the news and rumours through the internet and papers,
providing a day by day account of all the happenings at The Hawthorns. Can be
submitted daily or once or twice a week.
General Articles - We
are looking for writers to provide articles and opinions on the latest
happenings at the club and also people that can provide historical pieces. It
can be a regular contribution or a one-off.
Reserve Team Match Reporter
- Someone that is a regular watcher of games is required and perhaps someone
with a good knowledge of the younger players at the club.
Please get in touch for more
details, if you have any ideas, or if you are interested in helping in any way.
