You'll work alongside our lead play-by-play announcer as one of the voices viewers associate with St. Helena sports.

- Can conduct short interviews confidently

You do not have to sound like an ESPN commentator on day one. We're looking for someone with personality, sports knowledge, communication skills, and the potential to grow with GSTV.
Experience in sports broadcasting, announcing, radio, podcasting, interviewing, journalism, public speaking, or live production is a plus, but not required.
Compensation
$100 per game

This is seasonal, game-based work covering St. Helena High School football and basketball during the 2026–27 season.
Why Join GSTV?
GSTV is building a professional live sports broadcast platform focused on bringing high-quality coverage to St. Helena Parish and rural Louisiana.
This is an opportunity to gain real, hands-on experience in live sports broadcasting while becoming part of a growing production.
You'll be more than a commentator. You'll help tell the stories of the athletes, coaches, schools, fans, businesses, and community surrounding St. Helena sports.
Friday night football. Packed basketball gyms. Live interviews. Big plays. Community stories.
If you've ever thought you could bring something to the broadcast booth, this is your opportunity to get behind the mic.
