Welcome MY Access!® Students!

Posted on 30 July 2012 by DS Reporter.

Welcome to DS Nation, MY Access!® students!

Now is your time to get inside the game and share your sports stories with the entire nation. Become a DS Reporter™ and cover the drama and glory of sports right inside the walls of your school.

By signing up, you will become a member of DS Nation: an exclusive team of student sports journalists reporting on the exciting world of middle and high school sports.

Get started today by completing your first DS Nation assignment:

Write a Game Story:

Attend an upcoming game at your school. What play or player had fans still talking when the game was over? Describe either the game’s most spectacular play or its most spectacular individual performance and how it affected the game’s final outcome.

The goal of a game story is to not just report the final score, but to also tell the reader what the turning points were in to getting to that end result. See this example story for inspiration.

Season/Game Previews:

Make an appointment to interview one of the spring sport coaches at your school. Ask how they expect this year’s team will compare to last year. In what areas, as a team, have they improved the most? What are the areas they are still focusing on to improve before the season starts? What are their goals and expectations for the year?

Preview stories rely heavily on facts and statistics. You use the past performance of teams – coupled with information about their current players and performance trends – to predict how a game will go or how a team will perform over the course of a season. See this example story for inspiration.

Feature Story:

Attend an upcoming game at your school and take a picture of the fans. Use that picture to help describe the fans’ traditions at that school. What are the chants they use every year? What new twist has this year’s group added?

Use quotes from the individual to help tell their story in their own words, but make sure you don’t rely too heavily on them. Paint a picture with your words so that the reader can see and feel what you are describing. See this example story for inspiration.

See our DS Reporter™ Resources on tips to get started!
