Team of the week

Hey coaches, parents, league directors! Coming up, the Hernando Times will select a Team of the Week to feature on its Friday Youth Sports page. Does your team have what it takes?

E-mail communitysports@tampabay.com and explain what makes your team the top pick. Be sure to include a photo of your squad with the name of each team member pictured and the date when the photo was taken.

Send us your sports photos

Before you seal that recent sports accomplishment into a photo album or a scrapbook, show it off to your community. The Hernando Times will publish your submitted photos every Thursday in a new feature called Hometown Sports.

What qualifies? Anything action or posed of a community member that involves any sport from archery to shuffleboard, baseball to motocross. Photos must be recent snapshots.

How do I turn them in? E-mail photos as jpeg attachments to communitysports@tampabay.com and make sure to include information about the picture.

Answer the following questions: Why was the picture taken, or at what event was the picture taken? Who is in the picture? What city/town is that person or group from? (Make sure you check the spelling.) What is going on in the picture?

To ensure that your photo is selected, save it as a large file (minimum 1.5 megabytes). Do not try reduce, enlarge or edit the image in any other way before sending it. Simply send it as it comes off your camera.

Call Kellie Dixon at (352) 544-9480 with any questions.
