Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly does this program entail?

Being a DICK’S Varsity Teammate means you are creating relevant content to the DICK’S Sporting Goods brand, and that you are in a contracted partnership to create content to post on social for the brand. Alongside content creation, you will gain access to attend industry events, build community, and receive ongoing content creation mentorship.

What are the criteria to apply?

You need to be at least 18 years old, have links to your active and public social media accounts and share a headshot. There is no minimum follower number to apply, though those with larger social followings are appreciated. You must be equipped to film, edit, and post original content. You’ll also have the opportunity to share examples of content you’ve already created if you’d like. If you are a current DICK’S Sporting Goods employee you must be in good standing.

How long will my contract be, and what’s the time commitment?

Your participation in the program will last for 10 months (April 2025– January 2026). The time needed will vary, but you should have at least a couple of hours free each month for filming and editing content.

What type of creators are you looking for?

We’re looking for the people who make sport great – athletes, parents, coaches and fans. We want creators who are passionate about style, sports, and social media to create social content and possibly attend events and photoshoots.

Will I be paid, and what are my deliverables?

Yes. Varsity Teammates will be awarded contracts and will be paid as they complete social deliverables or campaigns. Deliverables will be discussed upon acceptance into the program.

I only have Instagram and/or TikTok. Can I still apply?
