When it comes to being a college athlete, it can be hard to not only the time for school but also the time for family and friends; it takes a lot of discipline to be a college athlete and be able to manage your time well. The experience of being a college athlete can help in many different ways of life, whether that is on the field or off the field; being able to work with other people is a big advantage because you have to work as a team in the sport to achieve the same goal. I believe that being an athlete is an advantage when it comes to working In the field of sports management because you are already far ahead of other people who may not be in sports, so having that experience through sports can be a big advance in this field of work.
