Gain Real-World Experience with Flying Angels
Flying Angels offers co-op and internship opportunities for students who want meaningful, hands-on experience in a youth sport organization.
Our students and interns work alongside the Flying Angels team and contribute to real projects, programs, events, and day-to-day operations. These are opportunities to develop practical skills, build your résumé, gain references, and experience what it is like to work within a growing sport organization.
Opportunities may be available for high school co-op students, college students, university students, and recent graduates, depending on the position and time of year.

Assist with filming practices, competitions, athlete features, interviews, promotional videos, YouTube content, photography, and video editing.

Assist with athlete registrations, competition entries, uniforms, team records, statistics, travel preparation, camps, Development League meets, and other program activities.
Events & Competitions
Gain experience helping organize Flying Angels track meets, camps, special events, athlete activities, awards, volunteers, event logistics, and competition-day operations.
Other Areas
