The Game Day Internship Program is designed for college students to explore careers in the sport industry while getting hands-on experience working with one of the most successful teams in Minor League Baseball. The Dash's GDI Program will expose students to numerous game day roles and will allow students to learn from and work alongside Dash Front Office Staff members. By experiencing multiple departments, the GDI Program is designed to assist students in choosing which specific direction they are interested in.
Timeline:
The GDI program will begin in April and will conclude in September. Interns are expected to be present for all Dash home games they are scheduled for. We acknowledge that most colleges and universities do not end the school semester until May. The GDI Program is able to work with individuals that are still attending classes at that time.
Hours:
Game day report time is approximately 2.5 hours prior to first pitch (4:30PM for a standard 7:05PM game). GDI's will be dismissed shortly after the game ends or when all responsibilities are finished.
College Credit/Compensation:
Game Day Interns are able to earn college credit.
Experience Includes:
- Assist in general game day setup including: giveaways, programs, and sponsor tables
