The Sports Journalism & Match Reporting Course is all about going to sports games or sporting events and venues, mixing with the players or competitors, then reporting it to an audience who appreciate every word you’ve written. No matter what sport you like one thing is for sure ... this country wants to read about it.

Through this course you are going to learn how to write structured articles, conduct interviews, prepare features, write match reviews and submit your work to editors.

You will learn how sports journalists do their job, how they interview players and competitors, how they get lively ‘quotes’, how they write exciting match reports and how they get them published with their name underneath.

It doesn't matter what the sport is. Just about any sport has a market:

  • tennis
  • surfing
  • skiing
  • hockey
  • netball
  • football
  • cricket
  • swimming
  • beach volleyball
  • badminton
  • golf
  • cycling

As you can see there is a lot to write about.
