This is all about creating and issuing accreditations. Every participant receives an accreditation so that he/she can identify him/herself accordingly and gain access to the various (backstage) areas. The accreditations are printed on site and issued to the respective persons. Accreditation will be staffed by a member of the organizing team, but help is needed especially in the initial phase of the event. If you already have some previous experience with databases, this is the right place for you.

This can be done at a help desk in the media area, where press representatives can get all the information they need directly. For example, they can ask about line-ups before the game or the result of a match. There will be a good infrastructure on site so that online services will work without any problems. If you have a good overview and are well versed in technical matters, this is the right place for you.

This could be maintaining the dressing rooms, looking after the players' benches or managing the playing equipment.

This area is the right one for you if you know your way around field hockey and are familiar with the rules. rules and regulations.

A good knowledge of written and spoken English is a prerequisite for this area. It is also helpful if you speak another language spoken by a competing nation
In the "VIP/Hospitality" area, everything revolves around the physical well-being of employees, volunteers and representatives. Every volunteer shift begins and ends in the volunteer tent. There, all volunteers receive all the necessary information, food and drink, as well as a comfortable place to take a break. Hospitality volunteers make sure that all the common rooms are clean and inviting, always have an open ear for any helping hand and also provide the volunteers with the necessary information about their assignment or the further course of their volunteering. True organizational talents are therefore in the right place here
We understand the term "Volunteer Management" to mean working in a leading volunteer position. Anyone who can imagine taking over the management of one of the areas mentioned is welcome to contact us in this area. It is therefore necessary to volunteer a while before the tournament. You will need to create schedules via eventvolunteers.de, contact the helpers in your volunteer pool, consult with the organizing team, etc. Although this assignment involves a little more effort, it also offers a special kind of experience. The DHB volunteer family is happy to already be so large and to be growing by more volunteers. You can play an active role in shaping this process and, above all, you will be involved in the ongoing planning process for the event.
