Introduction to the blog...

Hi, my name's Toby Wildgoose. I'm a 21 year old who's obsessed by sport, so much so, that I am looking to become a sports journalist/media officer in later life.

I've set up this blog not only so that I can improve and refine my writing skills, but also to provide a platform for potential employers to view my work.

I have already developed a small portfolio of my work, with my experience in the industry including: written match reports for junior football teams, published work at numerous EFL clubs in a variety of formats, and work experience placements at Chesterfield FC and Rotherham United Community Sports Trust - to see my full portfolio click here: http://goo.gl/VWws3H.

I hope to post as often as possible on this blog about anything that is sport related. Please find the time to read any of my posts.

Any comments or suggestions on how I can improve the blog would be greatly appreciated, and I would also be happy to receive any other suggestions for work experience. Please comment on here, email me (tobywildgoose@gmail.com), or even tweet me (@TobyWildgoose). Cheers!

Gallery: Worksop Town 1-1 Penistone Church (23/12/2017)

Last weekend, I decided to attend the NCEL Premier Division fixture between Worksop Town and Penistone Church at Sandy Lane. I also took my camera to the match, but unfortunately its quality once again restricted me to shooting just the first-half.

Below are a selection of images from the first-half:


The teams prepare for a minute's silence to honour the passing of a Worksop Town legend.

The captains shake hands before kick-off.

...And looks to lead an attack on the Penistone defence.

One of the many aerial duels of the game.

Worksop attack down the wing again.

Possession is held in midfield.

'Look up!'

Eyes on the prize.

It was not long after this point that conditions became too dark for me to shoot in.
