Seeing that
sports are practically the center of my existence, it seemed only fitting for
me to apply for an internship with North American Sports Group. Two directors
from the company presented to one of my Sports Management classes in the spring
about a paid internship with NASG which is a company responsible for hosting
3v3 sports tournaments all across the country. Hoop It Up basketball, Rock the
Box lacrosse, Let it Fly football, and Kick It soccer are NASG’s 4 properties.
The Kick-It property is actually the world’s largest 3v3 soccer tournament!
After receiving the call that I would be hired as a Team Services intern, I
packed for my trip to their main office in Denver, Colorado. Most of my job
here consists of planning 100-team tournaments all over the U.S. and the rest
of my job consists of working at local soccer events here in Denver. I love the
change of scenery here and being able to look out my apartment window to
foothills, mountains, and downtown Denver in the distance. Event planning in
the arena of sport is what I would love to see in my future as far as my career
is concerned. This summer has been an amazing and eye-opening experience to the
world of sporting events. However, I am incredibly excited to get back to
Gainesville and be reunited with all my Chi Omega sisters.
XOXO Your VP,
Megan Conlon
