Sports Business Opportunity
To help young people understand these opportunities, BALLISTIC BALLERS CIC is offering a REMOTE placement called From Pitch to Profit – Create Your Own Sports Business. The experience is designed to build confidence, independence, and employability by giving participants hands-on experience in sports coaching, event planning, and the fundamentals of how a sports-based organisation operates.
During the placement, young people will:
- Support coaching sessions and learn how to lead activities, design drills, manage groups and communicate effectively.
• Help plan and deliver a small community sports event, gaining experience with scheduling, organising equipment, budgeting and project management.
• Build core business and leadership skills, including branding, promotion, teamwork and the essentials of running a sports-related venture.
The placement is suitable for students who enjoy sport, leadership, youth work or creative problem-solving, and for those who may not see themselves as athletes but are keen to contribute to the sport and wellbeing sector in other meaningful ways.
