Join the Movement at the Intersection of Tennis, Wellness, and Culture

We’re looking for a proactive, creative, and purpose-driven Content & Marketing Intern to join our growing team at 821 Tennis and the Athlete Wellness Collective (AWC) — two bold brands reshaping how sport is experienced and expressed through media, performance, and community.

If you're passionate about writing, digital marketing, wellness, and cultural storytelling — this is your chance to lead, learn, and grow.
