What is The Sports Intern?
The Sports Intern is the world's only membership platform focused entirely on sports internships! We aim to provide students and sports career seekers with tools, resources, and tips for a career in sports. We realized there was a gap in useful sports internship information, so we put together this platform to make it easier for those who want to work in sports. We even made the world's first all-sports internships only job board.
Why is there membership fees?
We know, college can be a tough time financially. So we have worked to make The Sports Intern as affordable as possible while still bringing you incredible resources, like The Sports Intern - Internship Job Board. We use powerful technology to help us find sports internships in all corners of the internet round the clock, but that does come with a cost. So our membership fees go to bringing you the best experience possible here. We break out the membership into two separate options to make it as affordable as possible (The Sports Intern site and The Sports Intern - Internship Job Board).
What are the benefits of the paid membership?
With a paid membership you will have full access to the Community Forum where you can ask questions, chat, and network, and the entire Sports Career Hub with resources, tips, and tools. You'll also have access to the entire library of Industry Insiders and Intern Insights - interviews with those who have been in the industry. If you add a membership to The Sports Intern - Internship Job Board you'll have access to hundreds of sports internships.
I have questions. How can I get them answered?
Email us anytime! We really do answer 🙂 he***@th*************.com
How do I cancel my account?
You can cancel anytime by visiting your membership pages on either site (thesportsintern.com or jobs.thesportsintern.com). We hate to see you go, but we'll understand! If there's anything we can help with prior to cancelling your member, please reach out to us at he***@th*************.com.
Unfortunately we are not able to provide partial refunds. If you cancel after you've paid your monthly or yearly fee you will continue to be able to access TSI until the end of your paid term.
Who is The Sports Intern for?
Students, Sports Career Seekers, Professors, Sports Organizations, Career Development Advisors, and more! This platform idea has students and sports career seekers in mind. If you want to work in sports, you're in the right place. But we realized sports internship experiences are driven by sports orgs themselves, as well as university personnel, so we also have content and resources for organizations because we know better sports internships start with organizations!
What types of internships are on the Internship Job Board?
Everything we can find in the realm of sports internships! You may see internships with sports apparel companies, with professional teams, with colleges, with agencies, with non-profit organizations, and the list goes on! Internships range from operations to marketing to finance and everything in between. If you have any concerns the type of internship you are seeking may not be represented on the board, feel free to reach out to us at he***@th*************.com.
Where are these internships located?
We primarily showcase English-language based internships located in the United States; however, we sometimes have internships in Canada, and even other parts of the world.
How often are internships updated?
Daily! Our tech is working round the clock to find the best in sports internships to share with you.
How do I apply to these internships?
Typically you will apply directly with the organization or another outside site. We do not handle your resume direct, unless requested by an organization to conduct their intern search specifically.
I found an expired internship on the Job Board!
Sorry! Most internship listings don't have expiration dates - they are simply taken down by organizations once they are filled. We do our best to keep up daily with expired internships but you may come across some on the site. There is a 'Job Expired?' button on the top right side of the page you can use to inform us!
