WSC writers' competition

We are pleased to announce the launch of the annual WSC writers' competition, in memory of contributor David Wangerin who died in June. Entrants are invited to submit an article of between 800 and 1,500 words, about any aspect of the 2012-13 football season. The award was David's idea and he requested that it should only be open to amateur writers, ie those who don't make their living from writing. The closing date for submissions is May 31, 2013.

The judging panel will be made up of WSC editor Andy Lyons, co-founder Mike Ticher and regular contributor Harry Pearson. There will be a cash prize of £250 for the winner and the winning article will be published in the magazine next summer.
