My Internship at the University of Saint Francis consisted of me assisting the athletic department staff with any responsibilities from their corresponding jobs.

My job was to assist him with any of the responsibilities with the club. The Cougar Club is the main fundraiser for the USF Athletic Department. The Cougar club gives its members exiting and, exclusive benefits such as Family Passes for all USF home athletic contests, discounts on all apparels, admission to VIP/hospitality in all home games, and VIP parking etc...

I also told him that we should have our players involved in promoting the team by making them to put our schedule poster around the school and to share the highlight videos, and team events on their social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instant Gram. Another idea that I had to make the program look more professional was to make a mission statement for the men’s soccer program that way the players that are thinking of coming here know what to expect from us by reading our mission
