Partnerships

We consider collaborations that fit a publication devoted to understanding sport: its rules, forms, objects, tactics, and traditions. Proposals should be relevant to readers and clear about the organisation or work involved.

Kinds of collaboration

Possibilities include a clearly identified partner feature, a relevant resource placement, or a co-produced explanatory project. We consider each proposal on its subject, audience fit, and the clarity it offers readers. A partnership does not guarantee editorial coverage or a particular conclusion.

Partner placements

Relevant partner placements may appear across the site, including beside or among editorial material. They are labelled clearly as partner or paid content, so readers can distinguish them from independent articles. Placement text should describe its purpose plainly and should not imitate an editorial finding.

How to propose

Use the Contact page and choose the partnership option. Include the proposed subject, format, intended audience, and any relevant commercial relationship. We reserve editorial judgement over wording, placement, and whether a proposal is suitable.
