We’ve been fortunate at Champions Journal to work with some incredible photographers covering the Champions League. Our photo essays are an integral part of any issue and we always choose a couple of our favourite pictures to open every mag. It seemed, then, like a natural step for us to team up with the World Sports Photography Awards (WSPA) to sponsor their new Champions League category, focusing on the best images from each Champions League season – starting now with 2023/24.

‍

The World Sports Photography Awards are the world’s biggest and most prestigious sports photography competition. Since the awards began in 2020, thousands of professional and semi-professional sports photographers from around the world have submitted more than 32,000 images in 24 sporting categories.

The new Champions League category will have two sections, Professional and Fan/Amateur, to encourage as wide a spectrum of photographers to take part. If you want to enter, simply scan the QR code below to visit the WSPA website and upload your images – it’s as easy as that.

Entries for the Champions League category will close in early June, with the winners announced the following month. The winners of the general football category of WSPA 2024, meanwhile, will be revealed on 31 May. Even if you aren’t entering the competition, it’s worth checking out the WSPA website for some stunning photography from across the world of sport.
