Internship Opportunities

Dallas Cup Internship

Join the team behind one of the world’s most prestigious international youth soccer tournaments! Dallas Cup interns gain hands-on experience in event management, sports administration, marketing, and communications, working alongside tournament staff in preparation for and during the 2027 Dallas Cup, which will take place March 21–28, 2027.

Interns will assist in the months leading up to the tournament and play an active, on-site role during tournament week at the headquarters hotel and soccer complexes throughout the Dallas area.
 

Application Timeline
 

Application Deadline: December 31, 2026
 

Interviews & Selection: January 2027
 

Anticipated Internship Start: February 2027, with introductory meetings, occasional office visits, and responsibilities increasing as tournament week approaches.
 

Tournament Week: March 21–28, 2027


Internship Expectations
 

Tournament Week Commitment: Selected interns are expected to maintain consistent availability throughout tournament week (March 21–28, 2027). With hundreds of matches, stadium events, and additional activities taking place throughout the week, schedules can be unpredictable, with periods of downtime followed by times when additional support is essential. We understand that academic and work obligations may arise and will make reasonable efforts to accommodate scheduling conflicts.
 

We're flexible. We understand you have a life outside Dallas Cup. But if you commit to joining our team, we're counting on you to be part of it throughout the tournament.
 

Note: This is an unpaid internship opportunity designed to provide valuable hands-on experience in sports event management, operations, and communications. Interns will have the opportunity to build professional relationships, gain insight into the organization of a world-class international youth soccer tournament, and contribute directly to the success of the 2027 Dallas Cup.
