PAL Reporters
New Program in 2021
While the focus of the PAL is athletics, there is another side to sports too - broadcast. Clay PAL wants to open that door for our county’s kids who are interested in that field.
Clay PAL Reporters will allow kids ages 6-15 to step into that world with tasks like player interviews, game highlights, scores, photography, and video - geared to the child’s particular age. The content will be disseminated in a newsletter to the Clay PAL email distribution. A CCSO public information officer with a background in broadcast will lead Clay PAL Reporters. The kids will also get a chance to speak with industry professionals, and write, shoot, and produce their own content in an environment geared toward learning a different side of sports.
Participants will need access to a smartphone for pictures, video, and any applicable Zoom meetings (we’d like to keep this as safe as possible in light of the COVID-19 virus). The schedule will follow the spring 2021 baseball season, but will not cover every game.
