Ball Persons

Welcome to the online application system for the Ballperson program at the 2013 Sony Open and thank you for your interest in participating.

Now entering its 29th year, the Sony Open has become the most glamorous event on tour, and the place to be seen in Miami. Last year we broke an attendance record with over 326,000 guests visiting the Tennis Center at Crandon Park including the biggest names in music, entertainment and sports while the rest of the world viewed the event through over 7000 hours of global television coverage.

As you may have heard, the Tournament had a referendum on this year’s ballot asking Miami-Dade county voters to approve improvements to the Crandon Park Tennis Center and extend the Tournament’s lease another 30 years. The voters of Miami-Dade were overwhelmingly in support of the referendum and passed it with 72% approval! We are now working with the county to make sure the wishes of the voters are carried out and the improvements to the tennis center are made.

Ranked one of the top Ballperson programs in the world and with 400 positions to fill, we are the largest Ballperson group of any tournament and we need your help! Without the continued support of its Ballpersons, the Sony Open would not be the success that it is today. We hope to welcome you to our team for an experience you will never forget! After all, there is no better seat in the house.

Once you submit your application, you’ll receive a confirmation email along with additional details and requirements. Email any questions to: ballpersons@imgworld.com.
