Do you enjoy roving sidelines in search of stories? The Fredericksburg Free Press, a nonprofit newsroom serving five Virginia localities, is seeking a part-time sports writer to cover high-school sports, the Single-A Fredericksburg Nationals, and University of Mary Washington athletics beginning in August.
This hire will be the point person on a new weekly sports newsletter that lands in the inbox of our 14,000-plus subscribers. Knowledge of Xs and Os is both important and necessary, but the right candidate will produce stories and content that non-rabid sports fans can enjoy.
Pay starts at $2,000 per month for an expectation of 10-12 stories, including game coverage, features and short-form video. The gig starts in August, but freelance opportunities may be available in the run-up to launching the newsletter.
