How to volunteer for FIFA Club World Cup in Atlanta

What we know:

To participate as a volunteer, individuals must be at least 18 years old, speak English, and pass a criminal background check. Bilingual speakers are also encouraged to apply. No further experience is needed.

While volunteering won't allow you to watch the matches for free, as you'll be busy during the games, it offers a chance to be part of a historic event.

This tournament serves as a precursor to the World Cup, which will be hosted by the U.S., Mexico, and Canada, with several matches scheduled to take place in Atlanta.
