Want to see your favorite local athlete on this page?

Maybe it's your 4-year-old son, who is an aspiring soccer player or your 94-year-old dad, who just completed his fifth triathlon.

Send us a recent photo to run in the Hometown Sports section.

E-mail photos as jpeg attachments of 1.5 megabytes or larger to communitysports@tampabay.com or call Kellie Dixon at 352 544-9480 for other options.

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.

Answer these questions when you send it:

Why was the picture taken, or at what event was the picture taken? Who is in the picture? (Make sure you check the spelling.) What city/town is that person (or group) from? 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 to reduce, enlarge or edit the image in any way before sending it.

Simply send it as it comes off your camera.

And please leave the date off when you take the pictures.

Call (352) 544-9480 with questions.
