Poland sports briefs


Neighbors needs your spring sports news

The spring sports season has begun. Whether it’s on the diamond, the tennis court or the track, Neighbors wants to share your successes this spring.

But we need your help. Coaches or parents can send us game results, statistics, action photos or even pictures of enthusiast fans. All information can be emailed to neighbors@vindy.com. Send within 24 hours after each game to increase the chances of it getting printed in the next week’s Neighbors.

For photos, send high resolution shots and include caption information. You don’t have to be a great writer to send us information about the game. Send us the basics — the score, event winners, key plays and other noteworthy nuggets.

Have a great season.
