About this role
Working as a Stadium Operations Intern with the Frederick Keys puts you on the ground floor of professional baseball operations at a 5,000-seat ballpark in Maryland. You'll split your time between game days and non-event periods, handling everything from facility prep and maintenance to vendor coordination and event setup. The role offers genuine hands-on experience shadowing experienced operations and grounds staff—learning how to inspect facilities, manage inventory, organize invoices, and keep a ballpark running safely and efficiently on event nights and weekends.
This internship is structured specifically for current college students (sophomores through graduate level) earning academic credit, ideally in Sport Management or Facility Management. You'll need to be comfortable with physical work: operating small equipment like leaf blowers and string trimmers, lifting up to 50 pounds, climbing ladders, and being on your feet for extended periods. The position demands reliability and organization, since you'll be managing multiple tasks across game days, seasonal preparation, and special events hosted at the stadium.
If you're looking to build a professional network in sports operations and don't mind the hands-on, fast-paced environment of a working ballpark, this internship offers real responsibility and mentorship from an established operations team. Attain Sports' portfolio includes four baseball teams and a soccer club, so there's potential to see how a larger sports organization functions beyond just the Frederick Keys.
