What are some of the perks available in the sports industry?
Many who have careers in athletics put up with lesser pay and long hours for the perks. Lets face it, you’re probably not going to make the sacrifices required if you don’t love sports. And if you love sports then you’ll enjoy being around athletes, coaches, and the ‘game day experience.’ Perks include tickets, freebies such as apparel and equipment, social encounters with local and national media, and news headlines involving your team or league. If working in college athletics, it can be incredibly rewarding to see how student-athletes mature over the years and earn college degrees.
