I have noticed that both high school and college football teams, have female managers, and am also noticing that high school and college basketball teams have male managers.
Anyone know why?
What about track, wrestling, baseball, softball?
I have no way of know what all teams do. In college it used to be a good way to get in to sports medicine, sports management, and looked good on a resume when trying to get a job after college.
I remember one year at Ohio State, a four year manager, who "did it all" in regards to equipment, transportation, hotels, after graduation, was heavily recruited by many companies. He ended up much better than all the players on the team.
I don't remember how many years ago it was, probably twenty or so, we printed the program for out local high school. One of the mothers was putting it all together. I remember the day she came in and announced that her daughter was now the manager on the boys wrestling team. Her son was a standout on the basketball team. That was the first I had heard of a girl manager.
But, I have seen no gals on the basketball team, all guys, just wondering why.
