Behind the Threads

Real Games. Real Stories. Student Voices.

Pitch Threads is a student-powered sports media outlet dedicated to telling the stories that unfold on fields, courts, and diamonds.

We cover middle school, high school, and college sports through sharp game recaps and powerful photography—capturing not just the final score, but the moments that define it.

Built for young, aspiring photographers and journalists, Pitch Threads is a place to get reps, build a portfolio, and see your work published. Every game is a story. Every play is a thread. We’re here to weave them together.
