To our loyal readers and supporters,

Last week, we announced the next steps for HockomockSports.com, and the response has been amazing – THANK YOU! Going to a subscription-based model provides us with additional resources that allow us to invest in and recruit local talent to help us increase our coverage. We will have a series of paid positions, including our expanded Student Media program. This will allow us to cover more sports, more student-athletes, and more unforgettable moments throughout the school year.

For all inquiries, please reach out to Ryan at RyanLanigan@hockomocksports.com.

Student Reporters – We are thrilled to bring our Student Reporter program back as a part of our newly expanded Student Media program. This program is for anyone that has any interest in sports journalism with any amount of experience. The program includes hands-on training with our editors and the chance to learn and sharpen modern-day journalism skills. Previous student reporters currently work at The Boston Herald, The Taunton Gazette, Yahoo! Finance, Steelers Depot, and more.

Freelance Writers/Photographers – We’ll be extending our game and event coverage throughout the year to make sure we aren’t missing any big games, moments, or achievements. Must have some level of journalism/photo experience.

Photographers/Videographers – We strive to provide complete coverage of the league, and that includes photos and the ever-growing video/social media industry. We’re looking to build a student-led creative media team that can take our coverage to the next level. If you have an interest or passion for creative digital content. If interested, please include examples of work to the email provided above.

Digital Marketing Sales – Over the past 10-plus years, our advertising partnerships have been the lifeline of the site and we very much appreciate each of them for their support. These partnerships give us the ability to deliver their message to a unique and targeted group of people for a reasonable budget. While we take the next step, we are looking to create more partnerships with businesses in the Hockomock communities. We are in search of self-motivated individuals to identify and develop partnership opportunities. This will be a high-commission opportunity. We are looking for people interested in working the entire HockomockSports.com region. If you are well-connected in your community and would like to start there, this is a great opportunity for some extra income.

For the upcoming school year, we are looking to create more partnerships to feature your local businesses on the most popular local website in this region. We have a vast array of advertising opportunities that will market your product directly to potential customers. If interested, please contact info@hockomocksports.com.

We can’t wait for the upcoming school year to continue our unmatched coverage of the best high school sports league in all of Massachusetts. PLEASE forward this to any potential contacts that might be interested in any opportunities mentioned above.

Thank you,
Ryan Lanigan
