The Bird Dawgs baseball summer internship program is designed to give college students real-world experience. The goal for all our interns is that when the summer is over, you are ready to make a difference in the world of sports!
 
Our season begins on May 7, 2027 and ends August 29, 2027.  We look to have interns start in April of 2027. We have a total of 51 home games, and most interns will see a mix of working both games and in the office. You must be able to commit to all 51 home games.
 
We have several openings for internships.  When applying, we will ask you which ones you are most interested in.  Here’s what’s available and a little more about each one:
 
  1. Ticket Sales: Operations/Inside Sales/Group Sales – You will work with our Director of Ticket Operations & Sales.  During games, you will help to manage the box office and assist with the fan experience.  In the office, you’ll be learning about the inside sales operation, making outbound calls and managing the ticketing system.
  2. Photographer/Videographer/Graphic Design: You will be working with our Marketing and Media Relations departments to bring to life all of the fun had at Bird Dawgs games.
  3. Food & Beverage: You will be working alongside our Food & Beverage Manager and learning as much as you can about how food/beverage ties directly into the fan experience.
  4. Clubhouse Manager: Have a knack for sports operations/equipment?  Here you will be working directly with our coaching staff and upper management to give the players the best experience possible.  You will be responsible for uniform maintenance, keeping the clubhouses clean and supporting the coaching staff and players where needed.  You will also be coordinating post-game meals for teams and umpires.
  5. Pressbox/Media Relations: You will work directly with our Director of Broadcasting and Media Relations to help bring the Bird Dawgs story to the media and the fans. During games, you will help run pressbox operations and support the media in attendance. In the office, you will learn how media relations works day to day and help with the behind-the-scenes work that keeps the pressbox and press coverage running smoothly. Please include a link to any material you have, such as writing samples, a broadcasting reel, or a portfolio.

     
Please note: All interns will be responsible for housing and transportation. College credit and a stipend are available for all internships.
