Game Day Operator (New Jersey)

Game Day Operator

Brodie Rec. League™

Type: Permanent part-time

Location: Fairfield, NJ | Mountainside, NJ

Salary: $15.92/USD Hourly

Reports To: League Manager

COMPANY OVERVIEW

50,000 athletes. 30+ locations. Millions of views.

Brodie League is more than a basketball league, it’s a community. As one of North America’s fastest-growing sports brands, Brodie League is redefining adult recreational basketball by delivering an elevated, professional-quality experience rooted in culture, competition, and community. Our mission is to make every league night the best night of the week for our athletes.

ROLE OVERVIEW

The Game Day Operator runs the court and owns the welcome. On game night you run the score, the clock and the BallerTV stream, and you are the person athletes see when they walk in, between games and on their way out. Your Game Day Lead sets your seat each night: the score table, check-in, or the floor helping set the gym. Whatever the seat, the job is the same: every game accurate, on time and on stream, and every athlete leaving feeling the night was built for them.

Your League Manager hires, schedules and develops you, and your Game Day Lead trains you and leads you on the floor. Run a court to the Brodie Standard and this role is a path into floor leadership.

CORE RESPONSIBILITIES

• Run the score table. Keep the score and the clock accurate on the scoreboard, the BallerTV iPad and the scoresheet. Reset the shot clock to 24 or 14, record team fouls and timeouts, manage the possession arrow, sound the horn on every substitution the referees signal, and apply the timing rules. Get every jersey number right; if one is unclear, ask the player.

• Set up and run the stream. Set up BallerTV on your court before the first tip-off and have it live two minutes before tip. Check that it is live at tip-off and at every halftime, keep it running to the final buzzer, and watch battery and framing all game. When it drops, pause the game and work the fix; if it is not back in about 30 seconds, call your Game Day Lead.

• Own the welcome. When you are on check-in, greet every athlete, check them in quickly, hand out jerseys and answer questions about schedules, standings and rules. At the table, stand up and greet both teams before, between and after every game, know each captain by name, and use halftime and the breaks between games to talk with players and fans. Nobody gets skipped. Point drop-in players and spectators to your League Manager, who introduces every drop-in and talks to them about joining a team.

• Keep every game fair and on time. Give every team at least five minutes of warm-up and start every game on time, never early. Check the scoresheet for overdue balances and for players who are not on the roster. When you see one, that player does not check in: tell the referees so the game keeps moving, and call your Game Day Lead. Forfeit and roster calls are made by your League Manager, or by your Game Day Lead when the League Manager is off site, never at the table.

• Set the gym and break it down. Arrive at your venue's call time and help set the gym to the site map with your crew: courts, score tables, check-in and brand fixtures, as your Game Day Lead assigns. At the end of the night, return all equipment and completed scoresheets, clear your court, take down and store banners, and confirm with your Game Day Lead before you clock out.

• Take the seat the night needs. Move between the score table, check-in and the floor as your Game Day Lead rotates the crew, including on forfeits and no-shows, so every court is covered and the door is never empty.

• Spot it early and call it fast. Stay calm when a night goes sideways. Stop the clock and call your Game Day Lead for a disputed score, an equipment failure, an ejection or a player who is not on the scoresheet. For injuries, fights and emergencies, stop the game and get your League Manager right away. The scoresheet is the official record.

• Hold the Brodie Standard. Full Brodie uniform, on time, walkie on. Stay neutral during play, keep only water at the table, and keep your personal phone away except to check that the stream is live. Complete your training, shadow shift and certification before your first solo shift, and take feedback from your Game Day Lead on the spot.

REQUIREMENTS

• Experience in a customer-facing, fast-paced setting such as hospitality, retail, events, fitness or rec sports. Scorekeeping, timekeeping, refereeing or event staffing experience is a strong asset.

• A real relationship with basketball: you have played, coached, refereed, kept score or organized, and you know the game well enough to follow a call and answer a rules question.

• Accuracy under pressure. You can keep a clock, a scoresheet and a stream right through a close game, and stay neutral when players push back.

• Outgoing and comfortable starting a conversation with someone you have never met. You stand up, say hello and remember names.

• Comfortable with tech, including tablets, phones and streaming apps, and you troubleshoot before you call for help.

• Available for game nights at your venue (roughly 6pm to midnight, including weekends), on site for the full shift, with reliable transportation.
