Students: Want to experience what it’s like to work in professional baseball?

The Professional Baseball Athletic Trainers’ Society (PBATS) will offer its summer internship program again in 2021. This program offers a great opportunity for qualified athletic training students to get a foot in the door of professional baseball.

Please note, we are accepting applications in hopes that the 2021 season is not impacted by COVID-19.

Applicants do not need to be concerned about confining their choices to the 30 Major League Baseball teams. The PBATS program is more comprehensive than that, featuring over 100 possible positions with participating teams in both the major and minor leagues. A list of minor league teams can be found at http://www.milb.com/milb/info/teams.jsp. The list can even be organized by state for those unsure of which minor league teams are located in their vicinity.

Students who apply for the program should be prepared for a busy summer as these internships are not simply about observation. Interns are allowed hands-on experience under the supervision and discretion of the team’s professional staff.

Who should apply?

1. Students who are currently enrolled in a professional graduate athletic training program;
2. Students who are currently enrolled in a professional undergraduate athletic training program.
