PROGRAMME EDITORS

The following articles are available to download - gratis - for use in the matchday programmes and magazines of non-league football clubs. They aren’t time-sensitive so they won’t be out of date when you include them in your publication.

The written content within is all the original work of the author. Any images have been sourced from Pexels or Unsplash - in which case they are cleared for use according to the linked licensing information - or belong to the author.

In other words, have at it. If you publish the downloadable A5-sized PDF, please don’t make any amendments that remove credit from either the author or Sphinx Football. If you’d rather use the raw text, that’s fine; please ensure that both the author and Sphinx Football are credited appropriately.

Either way, we’d love to know where these articles have been helpful. So get in touch.
