Web Application Developer Intern
About The Twenty Four Foundation & CNFL Internship Program The Twenty Four Foundation focuses on youth empowerment, digital skilling, AI, and career pathways. We are launching the Chesterfield NFL Flag League (CNFL), designed to address the lack of recreational sports in the area while integrating sports with education. The foundation seeks to provide real-world experience to students to enhance their employability. We are actively recruiting students who want to explore non-athlete-centric careers in sports, such as data analysis, fan experience technology, and marketing.
The Twenty Four Foundation is a proud participant in the InternshipsVA program. #InVA

A few things I want to flag before you finalize:
- "CNFL" abbreviation — the intro still uses the full name on first reference and abbreviates after, which is correct. Just confirm you want "CNFL" used in the role itself or prefer to spell it out throughout.
- Unity framing — I positioned it as a "desired" skill tied to web-based game design since the STEM Football concept lives in a web context (Unity WebGL). Let me know if you want to be more specific about the WebGL build target.
- The "STEM Football" game name — kept as-is from the original. If that's evolved to something else internally, happy to update.
