David Lawrence is a Sports Editor at Stratford Herald. He possess expertise in journalism, newspapers, editing, sports writing, editorial and 23 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Having graduated with a Sports Journalism degree, Dave and Write Angle Media offered me my first real opportunity to get out and about reporting at rugby league and lower-league football matches. I was trusted to produce in-depth analysis/match reviews for local newspapers/websites, to interview players/managers and even to go on local radio stations, who were taking match reports live on air. Although my passion is greyhound/horse racing, working for Dave gave me some real confidence going forward and that's something that has stood me in good stead ever since. Dave was a brilliant mentor and developed my writing skills immensely. The opportunities he offers to young reporters looking for work are great and the experience helped me land a position at the Press Association." and "David has worked as a Rugby Union reporter for 102.5 The Bridge since 2010, providing match reports, interviews and analysis on matches involving Stourbridge RFC. Where David has been unable to attend games himself, he has readily made other journalists available, particularly at away grounds, so that our coverage of the club could be as complete as possible. David has also acted as a pundit on a number of shows, talking about other sports as well as rugby union. In his role he has to be well-organised, able to write and edit reports and comply with tight deadlines, but, arguably, most of all, has to be an excellent man-manager. I believe that David fulfils all of these traits whilst being forward-thinking as to how to improve and develop his work in the future. Adam Parkes 102.5 The Bridge"
