About Us

We are currently competing sports stars, retired athletes and a collection of sporting enthusiasts, who enjoy writing while still playing and competing, or are trying to finance their Olympic dream.

Any observer of sporting events will have an armchair view, we want to tell the story of the real sports discipline and culture needed to compete professionally, succeed and win. We want to share what it means to be an athlete, to suffer that crushing defeat when so close to glory. To collectively bask in the glory of our success when our writers compete at the world championships.

We love to help genuine aspiring writers so please get in touch if you want a platform for your writing.

What is a sports star?

While the technical term is a celebrated sportsperson, we don’t define that as famous here. We believe the many competing athletes who support their careers through normal jobs equally deserve the title.

An athlete is a person who is trained or skilled in sports requiring determination to win, physical strength, agility, and stamina.
