SLL connects universities, athletic departments, and live-event producers with vetted student crews — for commencements, tournaments, concerts, and everything in between. We work exclusively with colleges.
“Empowering students. Strengthening events. Building the future workforce — we work around students' schedules, protecting their academic success while they build real professional experience.”
Built, checked, and meet-ready before the first athlete walks in — the part of the job nobody in the stands ever sees.
Every worker on our roster is enrolled at a U.S. college or university. No gig pool, no temp agency overflow.
Shifts are routed against class schedules. Crews lead crews — student supervisors run the floor and report up.
Our crews hold themselves to the highest professional standard in the industry — bringing timeliness, respect, and determination to every job they're on.
Our partners give SLL the production muscle and the national event footprint. We give them a coast-to-coast roster of trained college talent.
National Gymnastics Association — our student crews run event operations, athlete services, and venue logistics across NGA's national competition circuit.
From the Olympic Trials to national qualifiers, our student crews handle athlete services, hospitality, and venue logistics for USA Gymnastics events.
Amateur Athletic Union — from regional qualifiers to national championships, our crews handle setup, athlete services, and venue logistics across AAU's multi-sport events.

Load-in, floor build, athlete services, and the reset that happens long after the last spectator leaves. Same students, every shift — trained, scheduled around class, and accountable to a crew lead.
Staff your next eventA few of the people who've worked with us recently.
“SLL's student crew showed up sharper than any vendor we've worked with. They learned our radio protocols on day one and ran point on credentials for the entire weekend.”
Dana Whitfield
Director of Special Events · University of North Carolina
“I made $2,400 in two weekends working commencement and got a real letter of recommendation for grad school. SLL treats students like professionals.”
Priya Anand
Senior, Sport Administration · The Ohio State University
“Recurring gameday staffing used to be our biggest operational headache. SLL took it over and our event-day overtime spend dropped 38% year over year.”
Coach Eli Brennan
Associate AD, Event Operations · University of Michigan Athletics
“From check-in for athlete families to load-out at midnight, SLL's students were the calmest people in the building. That's saying something at an Olympic Trials.”
Renee Carver
Tour Logistics Lead · USA Gymnastics
“I joined SLL to make rent. I've stayed because every shift is a different event — Formula 1 weekend, orientation, an NBA exhibition. It's the best job on campus.”
Jordan Pace
Junior, Mechanical Engineering · University of Texas at Austin
