What We're Looking For
We're looking for someone who can be both the calm professional in an emergency and the reassuring person parents and coaches are glad to see nearby.
Youth baseball tournaments can involve everything from a scraped knee or blister to sprains, dehydration, heat-related illness, and more serious injuries. Our goal is to have qualified medical support available so that when something happens, players and families know exactly where to turn.
You will become a familiar and trusted presence around the resort—someone players recognize, coaches know they can call, and parents feel comfortable approaching when they have a concern.
We also want someone who understands that great medical support isn't only about responding to injuries. It's about being proactive.
That means helping identify potential risks, making sure medical supplies are ready, understanding weather conditions, helping staff prepare for emergencies, and working with tournament leadership to create a safe environment before problems occur.
A Unique Opportunity
National Parks Baseball Resort is being designed to provide an unforgettable experience for youth baseball teams and their families. As our Onsite Sports Medic, you'll play an important role in making that experience safe and enjoyable.
You'll have the opportunity to work in a beautiful outdoor setting, alongside baseball professionals, resort staff, coaches, and families from around the country.
If you're a medical professional who enjoys sports, working with kids and families, being outdoors, and wants to be part of something from the beginning, this could be an exciting opportunity.
Help us create a baseball experience where families can focus on the game, the adventure, and making memories—knowing that qualified medical support is always close by.
