MTA Sports Management Tours World’s Most Famous Arena

On Tuesday afternoon, members of Yeshiva University High School for Boys’ (MTA) popular sports management club, accompanied by faculty advisor and former MSG employee Shuey Jacoby, headed south to Madison Square Garden for a private behind-the-scenes tour of the iconic venue. The group was met by Vice President of Business Solutions Branden Templeton, who played an integral role in the $1 billion transformation of the arena a few years ago. The students subsequently met with Ryan Redler, Manager of Sports & Entertainment Partnership Sales.

Over the course of two hours, the group had the opportunity to see unique club and hospitality spaces, as well as back-of-house areas such as the state of the art soda room which pipes soda through miles of piping throughout the arena. The group walked down to the arena floor, which was set up for the company’s WNBA Liberty team. Most important, the group learned first-hand about the business of sports from two of the top people in the industry.
