The Manitoba Moose Celebrating Women in Sport Job Shadow Program is designed to introduce women to new professional networks, increase their networking and professional communication skills, as well as advance the career planning process. The opportunity to interact directly with individuals who are currently employed in roles at True North Sports + Entertainment provides practical advice to aid in career aspirations.

The program kicks off Friday, March 20 when the successful applicants are invited on a tour of the True North offices. The day includes meeting mentors, networking opportunities, presentations from various Manitoba Moose departments. Participants will also receive a tour of Canada Life Centre.

The second day of the Celebrating Women in Sport Job Shadow Program takes place Saturday, March 21 when the Moose host the Tucson Roadrunners. Participants will rotate through various departments involved in a Manitoba Moose game day, observing pre-game, in-game and post-game events and tasks performed by marketing, digital content, communications, broadcasting, game production and more, before having the chance to get their own hands-on experience.
