Seeking writers and photographers to help cover the Canadian Premier League, Canada Soccer and more

Total Soccer News is looking for writers and photographers to help expand our Canadian Premier League coverage.

We’re very proud of our in-depth coverage of the Canadian Premier League, whether with our top-quality image galleries or in-depth stories. But we are always looking to grow.

Contact Total Soccer News about producing Canadian Premier League content

We have writers and photographers in some of the Canadian Premier League markets.

But we are always looking for content producers based in and around the CPL cities – Victoria (Pacific FC), Langley (Vancouver FC), Winnipeg (Valour FC), Hamilton (Forge FC), York Region (York United), Halifax (HFX Wanderers) and Ottawa (Atletico Ottawa).

Content can be self-driven and can include:

Full disclaimer: this work is unpaid. Total Soccer News is a labour of love. Currently any income made from Google Ads and reader donations goes to maintaining our website. So, there will be no financial compensation connected to the work.

The ideal candidate is a passionate soccer fan who enjoys capturing sports images and/or writing footy stories, has some relevant experience and craves a deeper connection to the CPL. This may be a good opportunity for photography and journalism students looking to build online portfolios over the spring and summer months.

There’s no minimum amount of content producers are required to submit. Nor will you be required to produce both photography and stories – one of the two is great. It’s unlikely every match will be covered. Fit them in where you can. Again, this is a labour of love. It’s about contributing to the story of soccer in Canada and enjoying ourselves along the way.

We assist photographers and writers in attaining CPL media credentials, should they require them.

Prospective photographers should have previous sports photography experience, a decent sports lens (examples: 70-200mm f2.8, 300mm f2.8 or f4, 70-300 f4-5.6, etc.) and the ability to send photos on match days from the venue (via DropBox or similar file sharing site). Previous experience can include professional, junior or amateur sports.

Both prospective photographers and writers will be asked to supply previous examples of work. As previously mentioned there’s no pay connected to the work. However we do require a high level of professionalism in the content we produce and especially in the manner with which we conduct ourselves at match days.

So, if you’re interested in helping tell the story of the CPL and Canadian soccer, please send an email to [email protected]. And feel free to ask any questions you may have.

Look forward to hearing from you,

Stuart Gradon – Owner, Total Soccer News
