THE CORRIDOR'S 1ST ANNUAL WRITING COMPETITION

By JMB
February 14 2007

We are hoping to unearth the next great cricket writer. If we don't at least we can say we tried. There have been some superb sports writers and great examples of cricket literature. We are looking for an entertaining piece of up to 1500 words. Go on - give it a go!

The Corridor wants to encourage and applaud the cricket writer. We love to read about cricket, but few of us thing twice about the figure behind the words.

The competition is open to anyone over the age of 16 and entry is completely FREE.

THE RULES

- All entries must be on the theme of cricket or (preferably) cricket in Yorkshire.
- Entries should be between 1000 and 1500 words.
- Entries must be original - anyone found guilty of plagerism will be disqualified.
- Entries to be sent to jimmy69@gotadsl.co.uk - please head the email 'CORRIDOR WRITING COMPETITION 2007'

Once the entries have been received the editorial panel at The Corridor will pick our favourites. All shortlisted entries will be published on the site in early April.
