Content Creation/Social Media Intern

Social Media & Content Creation Intern — Deal & Dink

Are you obsessed with TikTok trends? Love creating hilarious videos? Think pickleball is the greatest sport ever invented?

Deal & Dink is looking for a creative and energetic Content Creation Intern to help us take our wild pickleball card game to the next level. You'll be out in the field — on the courts, at events, and with real players — capturing the kind of authentic, laugh-out-loud content that actually goes viral.

What You'll Do:

• Plan and set up content capture sessions at local pickleball courts, parks, and events
• Conduct fun, casual interviews with players at courts to capture real reactions and stories
• Play Deal & Dink with friends, family, and strangers — and film all of it
• Create short-form video content (TikTok, Instagram Reels, etc.) featuring the game in action
• Collaborate with other interns to brainstorm new content ideas and actually execute them together
• Help manage and grow our social media accounts (TikTok, Instagram, Facebook)
• Engage with our community and help build a loyal fan base
• Support giveaway ideas, influencer outreach, and launch campaigns

What We're Looking For:

• A sense of humor and a love for making people laugh
• Experience creating content for TikTok or Instagram (even just for fun)
• Comfortable on camera and comfortable putting others on camera
• A self-starter who can show up to a pickleball court, strike up a conversation, and come back with gold
• Interest in pickleball — no pro skills required, just good vibes and great energy
• Strong creative instincts and the ability to think outside the box

Bonus Points If:

• You have video editing skills (CapCut, InShot, Adobe, etc.)
• You're familiar with viral marketing or have experience growing a personal or brand account
• You've organized events, shoots, or any kind of IRL content before

This internship is flexible, field-based, and can be whatever you make of it. Whether you're looking to build your portfolio, grow a following, or just have a blast while learning — we'd love to have you on the team.

To apply: Apply through Handshake or email us at dealanddink@gmail.com with links to any content you've made — or just tell us your funniest idea for a new card to add to the game.

Let's make pickleball wilder than ever.
