Turner Field Site Visit

About a Month ago our class visited Turner Field in Atlanta, Georgia. Some things I saw while I was there:

• Hall of Fame-Houses the Braves best player’s jerseys along with other memorabilia from the braves past. Tours are booked here
• Suites and casino- This area has a casino place and houses all the suites that the stadium has to offer along with the 755 Club. Each suite has a TV and couch area and a deck with quite a few seats to sit in and watch the game from outside. The club has its own restaurant and drinking area then an outside deck where you can eat and watch the game
• Sky deck-Highest point of the stadium where fans can watch the game and there are a few interactive things up there
• Braves locker room/training area/suntrust club-This area had the braves locker room which is round so the players are never in a corner locker. Down the same hallway is the training facility and the Suntrust Club. The Suntrust club has a restaurant area and a door that leads straight to behind the plate on the field.
• The field-where the braves play
• Braves dugout-Manager always stays to the left where the video of the bullpen is. Players no assigned seating

Also some jobs you can get there are:

• Sports Marketing-Marketing the braves and drawing more fans in
• Sales-Sales within the stadium and outside of the stadium
• Ticket Sales-Be in charge of tickets during and before games
• Tour Guides-Giving tours of the stadium
• Hall of Fame management-Watching over the area and making sure everything is up to par
• Security-Constant security within the stadium is needed
• Team management-making sure the team has everything needed and everything gets done
• Sports broadcasting-talking about the game on TV
• Media-Writing about the Braves and their games
• Umpire-Calling the games
• Field upkeep-Keeping the field in top shape including grass and dirt and new bases
