Do you have what it takes to become a member of the Bet The Board writing team? We’re looking for the most talented men and women of all ages and writing backgrounds (no experience required) interested in attacking sports journalism purely from the gambling perspective. You don’t have to be a Pulitzer award winner or current editor of your college newspaper (although it never hurts) to help us make sports betting fun and accessible for the common fan.
If you’re ready to take your game to the next level we definitely want you as a member of the team!
Here’s the kind of content we’re looking for from our writers:
- Funny Gambling related stories
- Unique handicapping angles and fresh thought processes
- In Depth Statistical analysis
- Tales of Degeneracy
- Sports specialization (horse racing, soccer, hockey, auto racing, etc.)
- Creativity
- Authenticity
- 250-600 word posts
What we DO NOT want:
- Game Previews
- Picks
- 5,000 word long form
- Traditional thinking
Content is king, but we also want our writers to be open to new ideas while meeting deadlines for article submissions.
All we ask is that you answer a few simple questions below and submit a writing sample.
Do you have any previous writing experience?
Why do you want to write about sports gambling?
Please don’t think of this as an “interview”, but rather an opportunity to highlight your talents, especially for those without extensive writing portfolios. Also, be sure to include relevant social media links to previous work along with Twitter, Instagram, and/or Snap Chat handles.
Compensation will be determined on a case-by-case basis.
Send your submissions via the Contact Us Page or email them to [email protected] — we look forward to hearing from you and welcoming a new team of writers into the Bet The Board family!
