Wakelet, in collaboration with the FA, are giving aspiring journalists the opportunity to report on the upcoming UEFA Under-17 Championships.

The tournament runs from the 4th-20th of May and will be played at six venues across the UK. The stadiums taking part are the New York Stadium, the Project Stadium, the Bescot Stadium, the Pirelli Stadium, St George’s Park and Loughborough University Stadium.

Having won their maiden World Cup at this age range last year, England U17s are looking to add to their European Championship trophy collection having previously won the competition in 2010 and 2014.

To be in with a chance to win, you will need to create a profile with Wakelet. The website is a great way to make a portfolio and you can see an example from The Mancunion’s Head News Editor Cameron Broome here.

You then need to fill up your profile with your best work and tweet it to @wakelet and @FA with the hashtag #YoungLions.
