You Can Now Volunteer for the AFC Asian Cup 2023!

With less than 100 days to go until Qatar hosts the AFC Asian Cup, the local organizing committee has launched the tournament's Volunteer Programme. The program is looking to recruit 6,000 volunteers from inside Qatar to help support the tournament in 20 functional areas.

To be eligible to volunteer, you must be either a Qatari national or resident and at least 18 years old. Interested applicants can submit their details through a dedicated portal here. 

For Jassim Al Jassim, CEO of the AFC Asian Cup Qatar 2023 Local Organizing Committee, the launch of the Volunteer Programme marks an important milestone for tournament organizers.  "Volunteers form the backbone of any major sporting event," said the CEO. "The success of the Asian Cup will rely greatly on the tremendous skill set, enthusiasm and diversity that our volunteers will bring to the tournament."    "No major sporting event can happen without the active participation of volunteers. We are deeply grateful and excited to welcome this 6,000-strong volunteer team to the centre of our operations," added Al Jassim.

The AFC Asian Cup Volunteer Recruitment Center will be located at Lusail Stadium.

Shortlisted applicants will be invited to the stadium for in-person group interviews. Once selected, volunteers will undergo a comprehensive training program. After completing the training, they will be assigned uniforms and begin their shifts, with some roles starting as early as December 1, 2023.

Volunteers will play an important role in a variety of areas, including spectator services, accreditation, and media operations.
