Job Description
The Fairbanks Daily News-Miner is looking for a sports reporter who can also pagination in our sports-heavy part of Alaska. Our six-day a week sports section focuses largely on local sports, including the many that are unique to the Arctic, from sprint dog races to the iconic Yukon Quest Sled Dog Race. You'll help cover sports at more than 20 high schools in a 500-mile radius, the University of Alaska Fairbanks and its two NCAA Division I sports (men's hockey and coed rifle) and eight Division II teams (volleyball, women's swimming, men's and women's cross-country, men's and women's basketball, and men's and women's Nordic skiing).
You could also be covering the Fairbanks Ice Dogs of the Tier II Junior A-level North American Hockey League, and the Alaska Goldpanners independent summer college baseball team, which plays ball under our 24-hour summer daylight. Interior Alaska is rich in sled dog racing, too. We've got the Open North American Championships, one of the premier sprint mushing events on the planet, and the 750-mile Yukon Quest Sled Dog Race. There's also coverage of the World Eskimo-Indian Olympics, the Yukon 800 Marathon riverboat race, the 2,000-mile Iron Dog snowmachine race, and a vibrant running scene, which includes the Midnight Sun Run, conducted during the summer solstice. Fairbanks also has a world-class curling community.
Basic knowledge of InDesign or a comparable program is helpful as are sharp photography skills.
