The SportsGrad Podcast #278: How to become a SportsGrad Member in 2024
Hello and welcome to the SportsGrad Podcast!
Today we’ve got a solo pod, where we’re diving into what the SportsGrad Community is and how you can be a part of it. The Rookie Community is re-opening on the 14th of May, and we want to make sure that you’re fully across it and how it can benefit you!
We created the SportsGrad Community because a major problem with careers in sport, is that it’s so heavily reliant on your network. You probably always hear the phrase “who you know is more important than what you know”, and for good reason - when you have a network in sport, your career rolls out 10x easier.
So, we bring the sports network to you. You can join 700+ like-minded people in a private Community, no matter if you’re at university, the start of your career, job-swapping, or living halfway across the world.
Lots to look out for, including what you get as a Member, when to join, how to make the most of it, and success stories from the Community. Make sure to put your name on the waitlist to keep up to date with updates about the intake happening on May 14th.
