It’s great to get the chance to work in the sports and events industry as a student. Trips like these help us to learn about what it takes to put on an event, and it really puts the workload into perspective.”

The students worked on the Club Level of the stadium, armed with iPhone scanners to check fans’ tickets to ensure they were in the right section of the stadium.
