Basketball writer

We’re looking for contributors who want to cover basketball in the Seattle area. We want people with a point of view, great writing skills, and a passion for sports who can cover breaking news, write in-depth analysis, and anything in between. This is your opportunity to fill up a portfolio, build connections, and try your hand at something you’ve always wanted to try.

What you’ll do:

  • Cover breaking news accurately
  • Write news or analysis
  • Pitch and write stories that you are passionate about
  • Help shape coverage in the new and emerging basketball landscape




About you:

  • Confident writer who can sometimes work fast
  • A passion for and knowledge of Seattle-area basketball
  • Preferably based in the greater Seattle area (which gives you the opportunity to cover stories in person, should you want to)
  • Available a few hours a week

What you get:

  • Published bylines and a growing portfolio
  • Exposure across our site, podcast, and social channels
  • Resources and connections in the sports world
  • A ground-floor role with room to grow as we do

This is a part-time, unpaid contributor role to start. We’re upfront about that because we want people who are excited to build something with us.

We’re proudly a woman- and POC-owned sports media company. We want to change the narrative of what a “sports writer” looks like. This is why we welcome diverse voices.
