Welcome to Redand Whitemagz.com – your home for bold commentary, real-life stories, and in-depth features that celebrate passion, culture, and the spirit of sport. Whether you’re a die-hard football fanatic, a cultural commentator, or just someone who’s got something to say and knows how to say it well, we want to hear from you.
This is more than just a magazine. It’s a movement. A place where stories matter, opinions count, and voices—especially unique, fresh ones—get heard.
If you’re wondering how you fit into this vibrant red-and-white tapestry, here’s everything you need to know about writing for us.
What We’re All About
At Red & White Magz, we thrive on stories that go beyond the headlines. We believe that behind every goal, every artist, every trend, and every societal shift, there’s a deeper narrative waiting to be uncovered. We explore everything from the roar of the stadium to the quiet power of an independent voice speaking out online.
We’re not afraid of getting real. We welcome the beautiful and the brutal. The underdog story and the glory ride. We respect authenticity and originality over clickbait or fluff.
If you have something to say about:
-
Sports (especially football, but we’re open to others, too)
-
Music, fashion, or lifestyle trends
-
Culture and social movements
-
Mental health and wellness
-
Personal journeys, struggles, or triumphs
-
Commentary on the state of things (be it media, politics, or fandoms)
…then we’re already interested.
Who Can Write for Us?
Anyone. Seriously. You don’t have to be a professional journalist. You don’t need to have a degree in writing. What you do need is a clear voice, a strong point of view, and the ability to tell a compelling story.
We’ve published features from first-time writers, students, fans, players, artists, coaches, and just passionate people who had something to say. If you can write in a way that connects, you belong here.
What We’re Looking For
We’re always on the lookout for contributors who can bring something new to the table. We love:
1. Features & Deep Dives
Want to explore the cultural significance of a local football club? Or the rise of indie rappers on TikTok? These long-form, narrative-style pieces go beyond surface-level observations to deliver insight, analysis, and emotion.
2. Opinion Pieces
Got a hot take on the latest match controversy? Want to challenge the mainstream narrative about influencers or fast fashion? We welcome strong, well-argued viewpoints that spark conversation and debate.
3. Personal Stories
Sometimes the most powerful stories are personal. Whether it’s your journey as a fan, how a sport helped you heal, or a behind-the-scenes look at your hustle, we want to share your experience with the world.
4. Listicles & Light Reads
We’re not always serious. A funny, relatable “Top 10 Moments Only True Arsenal Fans Understand” or a quirky guide to surviving Sunday league matches is always welcome.
5. Interviews & Profiles
If you’ve spoken with someone interesting—a grassroots coach, a creative designer, an underrated athlete—we’d love to share their story with our readers.
Our Style
We prefer writing that feels real, not robotic. We’re big on:
-
Clarity: Write like you talk (if you’re a clear talker).
-
Authenticity: Tell your truth, in your way.
-
Energy: Keep the pace moving. Hook readers early and hold them.
-
Flair: We love personality. Bring your humor, edge, or weirdness.
We also like pieces that:
-
Open with a strong hook (a line that grabs attention right away).
-
Are well-organized with subheadings (helps with readability).
-
Stay within 800–1500 words (unless it’s a deep feature).
-
Are proofread and polished (we’ll edit, but help us help you).
Things We Don’t Want
-
Plagiarism or AI-generated content.
-
Generic “SEO filler” content that says nothing new.
-
Pieces that promote hate, discrimination, or toxic behavior.
-
Overly promotional content (no sales pitches or ads).
-
Clickbait headlines without substance.
We’re not about chasing traffic. We’re about chasing truth—and cool stories.
Why Write for Red & White Magz?
Because your voice matters.
Also:
-
You’ll reach a passionate, growing audience.
-
You’ll get to write about things you care about.
-
We’ll promote your work on our social channels.

You’ll join a creative, open-minded community.
-
For select articles, we offer paid opportunities (ask us).

It’s great for your portfolio or resume if you’re building one.
How to Submit
Here’s the deal:
-
Send us your pitch – A short paragraph about what you want to write and why. If you already wrote the piece, that’s cool too.
-
Include a short bio – Who are you? What’s your vibe?
-
Email us – We’ll read everything. Promise.
Our editors will review your idea, and if it’s a fit, we’ll get back to you quickly. If it’s not quite right, we may offer feedback or suggest a different angle.
Tips to Make Your Pitch Stand Out
Want to increase your chances of getting published? Here’s how to shine:
-
Be specific – Don’t just say “I want to write about football.” Say, “I want to write about how lower-league clubs are bringing back community pride.”
-
Bring a unique angle – If you’re writing about a common topic, give it a twist we haven’t seen.
-
Include a sample line or paragraph – Show us how you write.
-
Be yourself – No need for formal corporate speak. Talk like you.
What Happens After Acceptance?
Once your pitch or draft is approved:
-
We’ll work with you on any edits.
-
We’ll set a deadline (if not already agreed).
-
Once published, we’ll tag and promote your piece.
-
You’ll get bragging rights forever. (And a link to share with everyone you know.)
