Preparing the next generation of baseball physical therapists.

Baseball Physical Therapy Student Internships

Facilitating development of the next generation of Baseball Physical Therapists is a fundamental goal of the Professional Baseball Physical Therapist Society. The PBPTS is proud to offer a means of connecting Student Physical Therapists with Major League Organizations who are looking to host students for their clinical rotations.

The PBPTS Student Internship Portal is currently closed. If you are attempting to submit your application materials, please check back during our open-enrollment period running from November 1 through January 1! If you have questions, please see the FAQ below!

Q: Why am I only able to submit my materials in the Winter months?
A: With the heavy traffic this program receives, we are only able to review and distribute these applications during the baseball offseason. Every member of our team is currently employed in professional baseball and our jobs keep us very busy in-season. While we would love to keep this open year-round, it just isn’t feasible for us to manage this program in-season.

Q: What is the likelihood of me being selected for one of these clinical rotations?
A: This will be variable from year to year. You SHOULD NOT rely on this program as your primary plan for your clinical rotation. It is highly advisable that all students applying to the program have a contingency rotation in-place that they can fall back on!

Q: When can I expect to hear back about my application?
A: Unfortunately there is no timeline for if and when you can expect to hear from a team. There will be many students who do not hear back from a team at all. Our hope is that every interested student is successful in this program, but unfortunately the highly competitive nature of this program makes that impossible.

Q: How do I know if my application materials were received?
A: Shoot us an email at pbptsinternships@gmail.com and we will be happy to double check for you!

Q: Can PBPTS check on the status of my application materials for me?
A: While PBPTS is able to tell you if your materials were received and distributed, we are unable to tell you anything beyond that. Once your application is sent out to interested teams, we are unable to provide any further information on your application status.
