Submission Rules
The Online Sports Photo Club welcomes sports photography that highlights action, teamwork, competition, and memorable moments. Members may submit photos from professional games, school competitions, local leagues, training sessions, or community events. Each image should be clear, appropriate, and related to sports. Photos must be original, taken by the person submitting them. Avoid using copyrighted images from websites or social media. Images should not show inappropriate material, offensive gestures, or harmful edits. Members should choose photos that capture emotion, timing, effort, and excitement while respecting athletes, coaches, officials, and fans.
To keep the club fair and enjoyable, all members and visitors should follow the voting and community rules of the website. Users may vote honestly for the photos they believe best capture the spirit of sports photography, and they should avoid unfair behavior such as repeated voting attempts or pressuring others to vote a certain way. Respectful communication is expected on all pages of the site, especially in the live chat area, where members may discuss contests and share feedback. Comments should remain friendly, helpful, and related to photography or sports. Any photo submission or message that includes offensive language, harassment, plagiarism, or unrelated advertising may be removed from the club. These rules help create a positive environment. This allows creativity, fairness, and appreciation for sports photography to stay the focus.
