Transport Volunteers Still Needed for 2010 World Cup
When the call went out for volunteers for the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa on 20 July, the South African 2010 Local Organising Committee (LOC) were not quite sure what to expect.
Now, with only a few days left to the 31 August closing date, and an average of over 1 500 applications a day pouring in, the organisers expect the volunteer applications for the 2010 FIFA World Cup to break the 50 000 mark surpassing the 48 167 received for Germany 2006.
Showcase Africa’s Capabilities
According to southafrica.info, “We can see how excited people from all around the world are about 2010 in the number of applications we are receiving from volunteer hopefuls,” 2010 Local Organising Committee (LOC) chief executive Danny Jordaan said in Pretoria this week. They are eager to be part of this World Cup that will showcase Africa’s capabilities to the world.”
Johannesburg is leading the pack, with 11 969 volunteer applications for the Ellis Park and Soccer City venues, followed by Pretoria with 6 176 applications, Nelson Mandela Bay (greater Port Elizabeth) with 4 752, Cape Town with 4 356, and Durban with 3 971.
Specific Skills Needed
Despite the high number of applications, the LOC is encouraging those who want to apply still to do so, as volunteers with specific skills, including those with driver’s licenses wishing to work as transport volunteers, are needed. Those interested can call the toll-free volunteer hotline on 0800 52 52 52.
