Events Intern

Assist the events department with planning sporting events they work with. Projects the intern could help with would be communicating with tournament directors, managing the website events calendar, grassroots marking, marketing research, hospitality coordinating, equipment research, etc. The tasks vary based on the needs of the clients and the events we are hosting.
