From NashvillePredators.com:
Each month the Nashville Predators host students from local high schools to participate in the Student Reporter program. This experience gives students the opportunity to be a part of the press during a Predators home game. Students partake in a pre game media meal, sit in the press box during the game, and attend the post game press conference with Head Coach Barry Trotz. After the game the students each submit an article to be posted on NashvillePredators.com This program was developed to provide high school journalism students an in-depth look into the world of professional sports journalism.
Yes, one of the kids did indeed refer to “an excellent pre-game meal for members of the media,” but you have to remember he’s probably comparing it to high-school cafeteria fare. All the same, this is another good example of how the Preds (and other teams) reach out to engage the local community.
