Help support better game days.

PlayWell is building a flexible event-based team of Wellness Specialists and Station Assistants to support community sports events across Greater Houston.

PlayWell MVP roles are contractor-based. Assignments are event-based and not guaranteed.

Roles

Two Ways to Support Game Day

Wellness Specialist

$45/hr

Wellness Specialists are qualified personnel who operate staffed PlayWell Stations and support hydration, cooling, basic first aid, documentation, notification, and escalation within defined role and service boundaries. For the initial PlayWell MVP, Wellness Specialist opportunities are open to licensed nursing personnel, including RNs, LVNs, and LPNs where applicable.

Station Assistant

$20/hr

Station Assistants provide non-clinical game-day support including station setup and breakdown, hydration and snack distribution, station organization, supply support, sponsor materials, participant flow, and other approved operational tasks.

For larger or more complex events, PlayWell may add additional Wellness Specialists or Station Assistants based on event size, duration, attendance, setup needs, heat conditions, and sponsor requirements.
