BIOG
Hi, I’m Alex Smith, a 19-year-old trainee journalist. I specifically want to be a sports journalist with my main sports being football and tennis.
​
My passion for sport began at the age of 4 when I started playing tennis. Also, I became a football fan from a young age.
Through attending lots of football matches, I first experienced a sports journalist’s work when I started to buy the match day programme for every game I went to. From then I have always enjoyed reading articles and watching sport related content.
Some of the content that has inspired my career in journalism are match day programmes I have collected. Also, articles written on the BBC & Sky Sports websites. Additionally, football documentaries such as Sunderland Till I Die, Derby Days & some of the BT Sport Films.
My future aspirations are to become a renowned journalist and hopefully work for a famous platform that produce sports content or work within a football club or ATP (official men’s tennis governing body) as an in house journalist.
