About The Position

We’re looking for an engaging Sports Management Intern to assist in the overall planning and execution of the i9 Sports® (enter territory name) territory. The position works closely with the Program Director and game-day staff to increase member & registration numbers as well as ensure the execution of the i9 Sports Experience.

We were established in 2003 by Frank Fiume on the principle that the number one reason kids play organized sports is to have fun, not to become the next draft pick. i9 Sports offers youth sports leagues, camps and clinics for boys and girls ages 3-16 in today’s most popular sports such as flag football, soccer, basketball, baseball, and volleyball. With our focus on fun, safety, convenience, good sportsmanship, and age-appropriate instruction, i9 Sports is reinventing the youth sports experience for families across the country.
