    Hello HubMobsters, following a Hubbalicious month we are going to enter July with a sprint and we are going to join the sporty spirit that is all around us with the finals of the football world cup.  This time though, we are going to widen our scope to sports in general.  This week's HubMob topic is going to be National and International sports events.  We are going to be writing about all those sport events that make it to the national and international news, anything from athletics, cycling, golf tournaments, motor racing events, Olympics, tennis, and yes... football.

    Some ideas for a HubMob Hub on National and International Sports events are:
    The British Grand Prix,
    The Open Golf championship
    The tour de France
    The Portugese Grand Prix
    The Youth Olympic Games in Singapore.
    The 2010 Commonwealth Games in Delhi
    The Ryder Cup
    The Formula 1 Japanese Grand Prix
    The Dakar rally

    To join the HubMob please follow the steps below:

    1.  START YOUR HUB CLICKING THIS LINK.  Choose the Answer the Request green button.  Choose the MAKE A HUB ABOUT IT option. 

    2. Choose a relevant title for your Hub

    3. Include the HubMob RSS Feed in your hub: http://hubpages.com/question/57939/hubm … ew&rss
    For more information on how to add the RSS feed to your hub you can click here

    4. Add the HubMob graphic to your hub so that everyone who reads it will know that it is part of the official HubMob topic of the week.

    5. After you publish your Hub, come back to the forum and post a link to your hub with a brief description of what you wrote about and why. 

    Take advantage of the free publicity and of course, have fun writing!

    Wow Princessa, where do all these great ideas keep coming from?!  What an interesting list of possible topics.  I never heard of most of these events.  And I don't even need to do any research- I just watch the info start rolling in!

      I guess I just realized my hub was more about local than national/international sports...oops!  Sorry!

        Innocent mistake.  I wouldn't worry about it.  We're pretty liberal here.

    HubMobsters I could use your help!  I'd like to get started on the HubMob roundup hub.  Can you post here, or shoot me an email as to what kind of topics you are going to be writing about? 

    For example I don't want to include 'grand prix racing' in the title or URL if no one is writing on racing.  I can of course change the title, or content, but not the URL.  It helps if I start the hub right away and keep up with the daily submissions to the RSS even if I don't get the body done, or publish right away.

      Hi RM, I'll try to make one on the Tour de France, as I enjoy cycling and I am living in France it makes sense for me to explore that area.

      I have already written two hubs on Commonwealth games 2010, one focussing on the Green initiatives undertaken and the other on the Queen's Baton Relay.
      I am planning to write a couple more on the Commonwealth games (mascot and logo) and FIFA World Cup 2010 (vuvuzela). If I cannot make it by Monday, maybe will send you an email about late entries.

      1. rmcrayne profile image89
        rmcrayneposted 13 years agoin reply to this

        No problem.  You can let me know any given HubMob about late submissions.  Most of the time I will continue to monitor the previous HubMob RSS for at least a day or 2. 

        Thanks for the heads up on your topics.  I've delayed writing the primary content of the roundup, until I have an idea of the kinds of topics submitted.

      They're working Princessa.  I have faith!  i think this topic will bring a slightly different group of Mobsters, just as FIFA did.

      Hey Princessa great idea for a HubMob! However, I'm a little pressed for time this week with it being a holiday weekend. Know I will not make the Monday deadline. sad

      1. rmcrayne profile image89
        rmcrayneposted 13 years agoin reply to this

        Just email me a reminder on any late entries and I'll get them in the roundup.

          sriparnaposted 13 years agoin reply to this

          I have a very silly question but cannot help it. As you have mentioned about late entries, actually I have a few unpublished hubmob hubs on food, which I had started working on but could not make it before time due to my day job. So can I still publish after completing them and have the hubmob features on it (rss, photo, link) or do I have to do away with the features whenever I am ready to post?
          Thanks.

            Hi, you can still post your HubMob hub including all its features: graphic and RSS feed.

            If you want your hub to be included in the round-up hub, just make sure that you email rmcrayne with your link so she can include it in the relevant hub.

      Hello all

      I've just published my sporting hub.  Netball is an extremely popular and high participation sport in New Zealand, particularly amongst women.  The international netball encounters, particularly between New Zealand and Australia, are fought with fervor. 

      Here's the link http://hubpages.com/hub/Netball-New-Zealand

      I posted my first HubMob last night. It was late and I forgot I was supposed to come back here to post. wink

      It was on The Tour de France. There is just so much to watch here at our house between the FIFA matches and the Tour starting - I'm psyched!

      http://hubpages.com/hub/World-Lacrosse- … -Inventors

      The Iroquois Nation team may not be able to compete in UK, because USA may not let them back into the country afterward. Passports - I ask you: Can't it all wait until after the games July 15 - 24th?
