GET YOUR
SHOTS SEEN
STATEWIDE.
Join the County Sports Creator Network — North Carolina's statewide distribution system for high school sports photographers, videographers, and creators. It's simpler than ever: cover the games you love, invite us to collaborate on your Instagram post, and we amplify your work across the state. No portal uploads required to get featured.
How the Network Works
Simpler than ever. You focus on the craft — we handle the distribution.
Submit your application with your portfolio and coverage region. Our team reviews every submission and welcomes creators who are a strong fit for the network.
You operate as an independent freelancer covering high school games in your city or region. Work on your own schedule — no shifts, no mandatory assignments.
Post your shots to Instagram and invite County Sports as a collaborator — no portal upload required to get featured. Collab requests are open to network members only, and we accept a limited number each day, so post early.
We share your collab across County Sports' statewide channels with full credit. Inviting us to collaborate also lets us feature your images in other County Sports posts — and we'll always tag you. You keep the right to post, sell, and monetize your work independently.
What You Get
-
Statewide Distribution
Your best shots reach County Sports' entire North Carolina audience — coaches, athletes, parents, fans, and recruiters.
-
Post Straight From Instagram
No more portal uploads to get featured. Just invite County Sports to collaborate on your post and your work goes statewide.
-
Full Credit, Always Tagged
Every post we share or repurpose credits you by name. Your work, your name, our reach — that never changes.
-
Freelance Flexibility
No contracts, no required hours. Cover the games you want, in the area you know best, on your own schedule.
-
Grow Your Audience
Exposure through County Sports' platform brings eyes back to your personal profiles and channels, accelerating your own growth.
We amplify it.
Everyone sees it.
When you invite County Sports to collaborate on your Instagram post, you grant us a license to share and repurpose that content across our platform — and we'll always tag you. You retain the right to sell, post, and monetize your work anywhere else.
Your shot. Your credit. Our reach.
How Featuring Works Now
A few things that changed to keep the network fast, fair, and members-first.
Only approved network creators can invite County Sports to collaborate. Know someone who'd be a fit? Send them here to apply.
We accept a set number of collaboration requests each day. Post and invite us early to lock in your spot.
Our portal stays live for announcements and updates — and you can still upload media there anytime for future County Sports use if you'd like.
Who We're Looking For
If you love high school sports and already have a camera in your hands on game nights, this was built for you.
You've got an eye for the action shot — the diving catch, the winning basket, the post-game celebration. You love being on the sidelines.
Highlight reels, cinematic game recaps, player features — you're already shooting. Now let that footage reach an audience that's hungry for it.
You're already posting high school sports content to your social channels and building a local following. Level up with statewide distribution behind you.
You're already at every game. You already have the shots. If you can cover your local school or region consistently, we want to hear from you.
