Volunteer At Super Bowl XLIV With The Athlete’s Business Team

Super Bowl Committee

Going to be down in Miami for Super Bowl week?  If you have not yet booked your flight and hotel, what are you waiting for?  Not only will the city of Miami be celebrating the Super Bowl, but the weekend before, it will be hosting the Pro Bowl.

I have already started working on the logistics for a few events and gatherings.  With the help of a colleague and friend of mine, Roger Mussa, I am happy to announce one of the first opportunities you will have to mingle and network with people in the sports business world while helping out in making the Super Bowl week a success.

The Athlete’s Business Team has been working in conjunction with the 2010 South Florida Super Bowl Committee.   We will be designated preferred events to be a part of and help out as “hosts”, once we get a set number of members in Miami wanting to dedicate some time.

We will be limiting the group in size due to certain event logistics.

Directions to sign up with The Athlete’s Business Team:

To sign up as a Ambassador for Super Bowl XLIV and Pro Bowl 2010, you first must fill out an individual application by clicking here. Under the qualifications section, please make sure to select the Athlete’s Business Team from the drop down menu under the question What group, club or professional association do you belong to? This will ensure that you will be able to sign up for the exclusive volunteer opportunities that our group has been offered. After filling out the application, you may choose your volunteer shifts individually. Our group will be doing certain events to be communicated soon. If you would like to sign up for additional shifts, you may do that as well.

In addition, please make sure to save your username and password you create while filling out the Ambassador Application. If at anytime you would like to edit your volunteer information or activity schedule, please proceed to www.MyVolunteerPage.com and use your username and password to sign in.

Once registered please send Roger an email ([email protected]) so that he can ensure your registration is in good order.  Let him know that you found out about the opportunity from SportsAgentBlog.com.
