DAYTON, OHIO—The Dayton Dragons are conducting auditions for several professional entertainment positions with the team.
The Dragons are holding auditions for
mascot performers, the Green Team, and on-field entertainment hosts for the
2025 season. The Dragons are seeking fun, energetic, and enthusiastic
performers for these positions.
Candidates must be at least 16 years old
by January 1, 2025. They must be able to work nights and weekends; have strong
communication skills; an outgoing personality; and be reliable, responsible,
and confident performing in front of large crowds.
Mascot Performers
The Dragons are especially looking for mascot performers. Dance and athleticism are valuable skills but no previous experience is necessary. Mascot performers must be between 5’4” – 6’2”.
The Dragons’ two primary mascots, Heater and Gem, are the central characters and most visible entertainers at the ballpark. They dance, are part of nearly every skit, and constantly interact with fans as they visit various areas of the ballpark. Mascots also make appearances within the community outside of Dragons games.
What is the Green Team?
Green Team members facilitate all
in-game entertainment skits and entertain fans during home games and special
events at Day Air Ballpark. Other duties include: selecting contestants,
welcoming fans as they enter the stadium, preparing contestants for skits,
assisting mascots and hosts, dancing on the dugouts, shooting t-shirts to the
crowd, and creating a fun, family-friendly atmosphere.
The Host with the Most
The Dragons on-field hosts serve as the
emcees of the entire entertainment show that takes place during inning breaks
throughout Dragons home games. The hosts introduce contestants, skits, and
contests; provide personality and enthusiasm; and deliver witty commentary.
Interested individuals can audition for
any or all of these positions and can visit daytondragons.com/greenteam for more information. Applicants should submit an updated résumé and a one-minute introduction video to Jamie.Connor@daytondragons.com
by December 13, 2024 to begin the audition process.
