Club Photo Competition

View the May Photo Entries

Each month we want YOU to send us your photographs of your sport in action - whether it's Boccia - Handball - White Water Rafting or Judo - every sport is included.

On the last day of each month we will choose the photograph we think is the best and really captures the imagination and for one whole month, we will make you a website banner to help you promote your club.

This banner will feature on the homepage of sportessex.com and will also be promoted via the sportessex facebook pages.

You will also be sent a jpg file of the banner for your own use on your own website and materials.

At the end of the year - we will hold a grand final to pick our sportessex photo of the year 2011 - with a special prize for the winner.

So, if you have an eye for a good shot and a steady hand, get out there and start snapping.

To send in your photos - email: Photo Competition.

The closing date for May will be 31st May - the winner for May will be announced in June.

Please note that all photographs sent must have the relevant usage permissions if they feature any participant under 18 years old.

We also reserve the right to utliise your photograph(s) in any publicity or marketing materials produced by sportessex.
