Contact Tournament Directors and Media Representatives
Reach the Junkanoo Jam team for tournament operations, media requests, business inquiries, and partnership conversations.
Connecting with Tournament Operations
If your question affects teams, schedules, credentials, travel timing, or day-of tournament logistics, send it directly to Tournament Director Cassidy Miller at [email protected].
Good tournament communication is specific. A message that says “Need help with Friday” usually turns into three follow-up emails. A message that includes the team name, date, game window, and the decision needed can usually move much faster.
What to Include
- Your name and role with the team, school, outlet, or organization.
- The team, matchup, date, or event segment your question involves.
- The decision or answer you need, stated plainly.
- Any deadline that changes how quickly the matter should be handled.
Common Slowdowns
- Sending a question without naming the team or event date.
- Using multiple email threads for the same request.
- Asking for schedule changes without explaining the conflict.
- Forwarding incomplete travel or roster details and asking for confirmation.
Operations tip: If the issue is time-sensitive, put the team or topic first in the subject line. “Team arrival question - Monday evening” is much easier to sort than “Quick question.”
For background on the event itself, visit About the Junkanoo Jam. For tournament-related reading, the Tournament Details section is the best next stop before sending a general logistics question.
Press Credentials and Media Inquiries
Media requests should also go to Cassidy Miller at [email protected]. That includes credential questions, interview requests, webcast coordination, photography access, and requests for tournament notes.
Reporters and photographers tend to get the cleanest answer when they identify the outlet, assignment type, and coverage date up front. If you are covering one game, say that. If you are building a broader feature around the tournament, say that too. The needs are different, and the planning should be different.
Credential Requests
Include your full name, outlet, role, expected coverage date, and whether you need photo, video, writing, or broadcast access.
Interview Requests
Share the person or team you hope to speak with, the topic, your deadline, and whether the interview can happen by email or needs to be scheduled.
Webcast Questions
For coverage timing, viewing details, and related updates, check News & Webcasts before sending a note.
One practical point from years around event coverage: deadlines sound urgent to everyone, but they are not all the same. A same-day game story, a weekly notebook, and a long-form feature need different handling. Tell us which one you are working on, and the request becomes easier to route.
Tournament Partnership Opportunities
Partnership inquiries are welcome, especially when they connect clearly to the tournament experience. That could mean team hospitality, local destination support, fan engagement, webcast exposure, travel services, or community programming tied to the event.
The best partnership notes are not long. They are direct. Tell us who you are, what you want to support, what timing matters, and what a successful fit would look like from your side.
Best Time to Reach Out
Start early when the request affects planning, staffing, signage, travel, or media. Last-minute ideas can still be useful, but they usually need a tighter scope.
What to Avoid
A vague pitch that asks to “collaborate” without naming the event need creates extra work on both sides. A specific proposal gets a better conversation.
Partnership note: If your idea involves travel or visitor experience, review Travel & Destination so your message lines up with how guests already plan around the tournament.
Send partnership and general business inquiries to [email protected]. If there is a proposal deck or summary, mention what it covers in the email body rather than relying on an attachment alone.
Official Contact Directory and Response Times
Use the directory below to route your message. Keeping the request in the right lane helps the tournament team answer cleanly and prevents duplicate threads.

Response times depend on the tournament calendar. During busy planning windows and event week, operational and media-sensitive requests usually take priority. Routine business notes may take longer, especially if they require review or coordination with more than one person.
If you have not heard back and the matter is still active, reply to the original email thread with a short update. Do not start over with a new subject line unless the topic has changed.
