Make sure you spread out coverage. My son was all-everything in baseball and even I got tired of seeing his picture on the front of the sports page each week. The funny part is they never did a real story about him and HIS story. Which is pretty neat. Yes he deserved to be on the front page because he normally led in everything but it was just boring after a while. The sad part was they used his old picture a couple of games when he was not the star of the game. Mix it up. You can give details but team pictures or the hidden gem every now and then is good. I think the true stories about the kids past and future is also good. Have you ever done an indepth story on your son?
