My first day at my internship, Sport Inspired. I walked into the office and I was greeted by Calum George and the other intern Clayre who's from a small town in Indiana.

I had an idea of what they did at Sport Inspired but I wasn't quite too sure. Sport Inspired teams up with different sporting clubs to host field days at primary and secondary schools in the UK area. 

I started off by doing some research on one of the largest real estate companies in the UK, -------. The founder of Sport Inspired, Richard, was going to meet with them to try and partner with them. The main reason for the meeting is to get volunteers from the company to help out at our field days and in return Sport Inspired gets more people to work the games and the company can use that day as a team building day or a way to get involved with the community. 

The building that Sport Inspired is in is quite unique. When you first walk in, you notice the open-floor layout and you can see to the top floor(5floors). It's a great use of an old building because they kept a lot of the natural brick but they gave it that modern look with glass and oak wood everywhere. 

The office that Sport Inspired is in is quite small and it reminds me of a tunnel built out of brick. I've met 6 of the team members at Sport Inspired, Calum, Harry, Cat, Anna, Richard and Felix. They are all extremely friendly and accommodating.
