What is a turf management internship?

A Turf Management Internship is a practical, hands-on training program designed for students or entry-level professionals interested in maintaining and managing turfgrass, such as those found on golf courses, sports fields, or parks. Interns typically work under the supervision of experienced turf managers to learn about mowing, irrigation, pest control, soil management, and equipment maintenance. This experience helps participants develop the technical and problem-solving skills needed for a career in turf management, while also gaining exposure to daily operations and industry best practices.
