Learning About Caitlin Crawford Dallas Cowboys Internship Experience

By Jaclyn Hurley


The Dallas Cowboys are a professional American football team that is a member of the National Football League (NFL). The team plays in the National Football Conference as part of the Eastern Division. Their headquarters are located in Valley Ranch, Texas. The team sometimes allows outsiders to join them as interns. One of the internships they had was Caitlin Crawford Dallas Cowboys.

The team plays most of its home games at the AT&T Stadium which is located in Arlington, Texas. They joined the NFL in 1960 as an expansion team and developed a national following which led to many home games selling out. The team sold-out one hundred and sixty home games from 1990 onwards. The team currently holds the record for eight Super Bowl appearances, which is more than any other team except for the Pittsburgh Steelers. They are the only team in the NFL to have twenty straight winning seasons, from 1966 to 1985. During this time, they only missed the playoffs twice.

In 1964 the team decided to simplify the uniform to what it is today. They changed the jersey and socks to a solid color with horizontal stripes on the sleeves. The white jersey has dark blue stripes and the blue jersey has white stripes with a black outline. The new team helmet is silver and blue with a blue and white stripe down the center. They decided to keep the blue lone star logo, but added a white border to it. The team pants are silver and blue, with blue and white stripes. Since 1964, the NFL has allowed teams to wear their white jerseys at home.

The team uniform is very distinctive. The navy road jerseys, also called the Stars and Stripes Jersey, have navy pinstripes with white lettering. Each sleeve has a white and grey stripe and a V-neck collar. The popular star logo is shown on the stripes. The pants used in away games are metallic-silver, similar to the home pants, to bring out the navy color in the uniforms. The team cheerleaders also have their own distinctive uniform which includes an off-the-shoulder design.

Caitlin Crawford completed a summer internship with this popular NFL team. She is originally from Texas and wanted a career in broadcasting. She was studying broadcasting at the University of Oklahoma but wanted to gain real-life experience. When looking for summer internships, she decided to try for a position with the media group that works with the team. She sent in her resume and received an interview with them. She later learned that she had been accepted by the department as an intern.

At the start of her internship, her task was to handle the editing of footage taking place in the stadium. After being a video editor for the department, she began shooting footage on her own. Part of her internship involved covering events taking place in the stadium, such as the auditions for the cheerleading team, which allowed her to meet the participants.

The team has a very unique uniform which includes a white home jersey and royal blue socks. Each uniform has numbers and lettering to identify each player. The home pants are a metallic silver color that accentuates the blue of the uniform.
