Sport in Society is throwing BPSsports.com a launch party on Feb. 11. Hope you all can make it. Here’s the invite:

Date:               February 11, 2010

Time:               5:30 pm to 7:30pm

Boston, MA 02110

Join Sport in Society and Northeastern University’s Master of Sport Leadership Program for an evening of networking and learning as we celebrate the launch of BPSsports.com by Sport in Society alum Justin Rice.

BPSsports.com was founded by Rice in the fall of 2009 to feature Boston Public School athletes and teams and to provide an outlet for local college and high school students to gain valuable journalism experience.

Mr. Rice, who covers high school sports for several local papers such as the Boston Globe, worked in BPS schools through Sport in Society’s Athletes in Service to America Program. He is currently completing a Master’s thesis about the boys basketball team at Boston English High–the first secondary-education school in the nation.

In addition to learning about BPSsports.com and the issues facing Boston’s High School sports, the event will provide networking time, and opportunities to learn about Sport in Society and its Master of Sports Leadership Program.  Complementary h’orderves and a cash bar will be provided.

Please RSVP by Friday, February 5th by emailing Meghan Mahoney (me.mahoney@neu.edu)
