Founder’s Associate – Sports Media & Event Operations (Project-Based)

Velox 1 Track
Email

Note from the Founder: 

“I'm a former pro track athlete, building the future of Track & Field because the current model is stuck in the 1980s. I need a small, elite team to help me prove that this new format works in the real world. If you want to see how a sports league is built from scratch, apply.”


Role Overview:

Velox 1 is seeking 2–3 ambitious, sports-obsessed students to join the "Ground Team" for our upcoming High School Trial series. You won't be an intern fetching coffee; you will be an integral part of the operational "pit crew" testing a new professional sports format. You will work directly with the Founder to execute live, tech-integrated track events that prioritize strategy and entertainment over traditional "heat sheets."

Key Responsibilities:

• Athlete Staging & Logistics: Manage the "flow" of athletes based on the random-selection format generated by the Velox 1 App.

• Live App Operations: Assist in real-time data entry and score-keeping within our proprietary platform.

• Media Capture: Help capture "behind-the-scenes" content and athlete reactions for our social media and validation documentation.

• Strategy Feedback: Participate in post-event debriefs to analyze what worked and what didn't in the competition format.

Who You Are:

• A student in Sports Management, Communications, Business, or a related field.

• Reliable, punctual, and able to think on your feet in a high-energy environment.

• Interested in the intersection of sports, technology, and media.

• Bonus: You have a background in track & field or experience running live events.

Compensation & Perks:

• Direct Founder Access: Work one-on-one with the founder of a nascent sports league.

• Resume Builder: Gain "Day 1" startup experience and a high-impact reference for your portfolio.

• Course Credit: We will work with your university to ensure this meets requirements for internship credit if applicable.

• Impact: Your feedback will directly influence the final product of a future professional sports brand.

 

This is a project-based micro-internship designed for educational benefit and portfolio building. We will work with your university to ensure you receive academic credit if eligible.
