About i9 Sports – Fairfax, Loudoun & Arlington/DC

i9 Sports is a leader in youth sports programming, offering weekend sports leagues and multi-sport summer camps for kids ages 3–14. Our local operation is driven by a small, dedicated internal team of four and a large team of part time staff that drive the programs at the venues. We are committed to delivering fun, safe, and community-focused sports experiences. We've proudly served families in Fairfax for over 10 years and in Loudoun for the past 5 years, becoming a trusted name in the area. Now, we're excited to expand into Arlington/DC in Summer 2025. If you’re looking to make a real impact in your community while working alongside a passionate and collaborative team, we’d love to have you join us.

We’re looking for energetic, self-motivated Marketing Assistants to help us grow the i9 Sports brand across Northern Virginia. This is an execution-focused role—you’ll take an existing marketing plan and bring it to life in your assigned territory through guerilla marketing tactics and digital engagement. While your main focus would be execution, your ideas and insights will be strongly encouraged and relied on!

Place road signs and distribute flyers, doorhangers, and brochures

Strong interpersonal and communication skills

Highly organized, detail-oriented, and able to work independently

Reliable transportation and ability to travel within your assigned territory

Willingness to work flexible hours, including occasional weekends

Marketing, promotions, or event experience is a plus—but not required
