RKYHS Sports Management Club Visits Barclays Center

Students in the RKYHS Sports Management Club had the special experience to take part in sports career education day at the Barclays Center with the Nets. It was a great way to learn the “ins and outs” of the sports management industry. Students had the unique opportunity to screen the recently released documentary entitled “Cam Thomas NBA Journey: From Chesapeake to Brooklyn” viewed on the jumbotron. Following the screening, they heard a panel discussion with  the key producers of the documentary: Ally Melendez, Brooklyn Nets host; Charlie Widdoes, vice president, Content; and Tony Eaton, Content producer. Each of the panelists spoke about the inner workings of the organization and efforts that were involved in putting the movie together. They also discussed sports management career potentials and advice including social media, marketing and video production. The day concluded with watching an exciting Nets game at night, where the Nets defeated the Hornets by one point! Before the game the group took a tour of 770, visiting the headquarters of the Lubavitch movement and other sites in Crown Heights.
