The Washington Wizards would like to invite back middle and high school students, with an interest in learning more about working in professional sports, to Sports Career Day! Sports Career Day with the Wizards consists of an educational sports business breakout session hosted by members of the Wizards management team, a college fair with schools from around the country, and a Wizards basketball game after the daytime activities. This season, Sports Career Day will take place on Friday, February 24th, at 12:30 PM before the Wizards take on the visiting New York Knicks. The event is open to all interested students, teachers, administrators, and chaperones, but we especially encourage members of organizations like DECA, FBLA, AVID, FCCLA and Business Professionals of America to participate.

For more information and to register for this year’s event, please reach out to you/your student’s counselor.
