I have enrolled for the Post Graduation Diploma in Global Sports Management at Ironwood Sports Global Academy. It has been a month and I have been selected for interning with DNA Entertainment Networks for the T20 Mens World Cup in Abu Dhabi Stadium. It has been 10 days here in Abu Dhabi and I am assigned three major responsibilities and many other things to work and coordinate. I am learning something new every day, I don't think this would've been possible elsewhere.
I was working in the financial background for last 3 years and have been playing football from past 15 years now and that’s when I decided I wanted to do something in sports field. I started googling different sports management courses and that’s when I came across Ironwood Sports Management Global Academy. I enrolled for the program and it has been an insane journey so far.

I have done couple of events when it comes to Marathon and corporate events. Biggest event I have done through Ironwood is PMG Road Safety World Series. Got an opportunity to work with a lot of legends and got to learn what player management is all about and l am very great full for this experience. I am sure this experience is going to take me to places.

Studying at Ironwood was not like any other academics I've studied for before. The faculty at Ironwood were people from the Sports Industry and our assignments resembled real industry work.

I've always been a sports kid and always wanted to have my career in and around sports as thats what my passion is and Ironwood has helped me enhance my skills in the sports industry. One of the best decisions I took so far.
For me, Ironwood was a very sudden thing. Sports has always been a passion and I decided to convert my passion into profession. Ironwood helped me with that greatly. What caught my attention was that Ironwood offers India's ONLY sports management course with an opportunity to get hands-on experience in Dubai. The global exposure gave me a one of its kind opportunity to experience international sports events up close first hand. I would recommend any person from any field to take up this course if sports is constantly on their mind. Thank you ironwood Sports Global Academy
