WHAT IS OUR MISSION?
The Jason Taylor Careers in Sports Network provides South Florida high school students with equitable access to resources and best practices in the sports industry, preparing them for future educational and career opportunities within the business of sports.
WHAT DO WE WANT TO ACHIEVE?
- We want to introduce young people to the different opportunities that exist in the sports industry.
- We want to provide high-level best practices and standards from experts in the industry coupled with hands-on experience and application within their own high school athletic departments.
- We want to ensure that this programming is accessible to all high school students regardless of race, gender, economic status, etc.
- We want to strengthen the quality of the overall operation of each high school’s athletic department. This will be achieved by developing a Careers in Sports Club on campus that specifically identifies and trains interested students who will serve as a volunteer workforce for the athletic department.
- We want to develop a diverse population of young people who will ultimately and continuously have a positive impact on the sports industry (collegiate and professional).
