Editorial policy

Select Sports Insider aims to make sports concepts clear without stretching what is known. We distinguish an explanation from opinion, use careful language and welcome readers who spot something that needs attention.

Accuracy and clarity

We check factual statements against reliable material available to us and take care with the wording of rules, roles and sporting terms. Where a point is uncertain, disputed or varies between competitions, we say so rather than presenting one version as universal. Our articles explain sport and are not a substitute for the current rules of a particular event.

Independence and partnerships

Editorial choices are made for reader relevance, not as a condition of a commercial relationship. Any sponsored or partner material is clearly labelled so readers can tell it apart from independent editorial work. A partnership does not guarantee favourable coverage.

Corrections

If you find a factual error or a misleading explanation, contact us with the article title and the passage in question. We review correction requests and, when a change is warranted, amend the text and make the correction clear to readers.

Illustrations

Some illustrations may be generated with artificial intelligence. We use them as visual aids, not as evidence of a real match, person or event, and take care not to present an illustrative image as documentary photography.
