The Sports Journalists' Association is association that not only welcomes journalists, but allows photographers, broadcasters, reporters, editors, and cartoonists a spot to share their work.[2] However, in order to obtain a full membership you have to be a journalist based in the United Kingdom.
History
editFurthermore, the Sports Journalist Association worked along side the Glasgow Commonwealth Games. Being the pushing force behind its development, the recognition it brought to the Sports Journalists Association helped it to become known in the sport of Rugby.[4] Since then, the SJA has been very successful. In 2012, the Sports Journalist's Association was fortunate to be included within the 10,000 other colleagues involved at the Olympics in London.[5]
The SJA hosts the oldest sports awards ceremony in Britain, which began in 1949. The SJA British Sports Awards essentially honors the outstanding journalists and their work within the field. Ladbrokes, The National Lottery, and BT Sports are all companies who support and sponsor events hosted by the SJA.
