WHAT PAST SCHOLARSHIP RECIPIENTS ARE SAYING

“I want to thank PlayMakeHer for being a resource for women passionate about sports and entertainment careers and for the 2023 Women in Sports scholarship, which allowed me to attend the 2023 Immersive Sports Business Classroom program.

Before attending the Sports Business Classroom, I was unsure what to expect as the thought of being the minority, a woman, in a predominantly male industry of older men seemed stressful and intimidating! My experience in Las Vegas served as the confirmation I sought to validate the path I have chosen to work in the sports business industry.”
