Winter Sports Project

Every winter Jamie Adams had her students do a winter sports project in the class Sports and Entertainment Marketing. This winter she continues the project and still has the same plans for this project. The students try to complete this project by splitting up into even groups. Then they will come up with an event for a certain sport and try to make it happen. They will make it happen by calling up business' and meet with the owners to get them to sponsor the event.

When Adams was asked how this project can benefit the students she replied, "It can benefit students by learning to communicate and sell, it helps you set up events and that will help you a lot later on in life because you will have to set up events, and hopefully it can increase attendance for the game".

The main focus of the project is to increase the attendance for the sports event. If that happens it can benefit so many different things. It can benefit the business' that sponsored the event, the school, and also expose the sports out to the public which could increase the attendance for other games too.

Rodney Tello was asked what he thinks of the project he answered,"I think it is okay because it is such a great experience to learn of how to set up events and other things".

Many students and Adams are excited to see of how this project ends. If it is successful or unsuccessful it would be a great experience for the students to have either way.
