EUSA INTERNATIONAL

VOLUNTEER PROGRAMME

Through the work of EUSA Student Commission, the Organising Committees of EUSA

events, and with the support from the International University Sports Federation

(FISU), EUSA was able to offer students from around Europe a unique opportunity to

participate as part of the organisation of EUSA events as international EUSA volunteers.

Throughout the summer of
2019, international volunteers
were present across the 21
EUSA European Universities
Championships, assisting the
local organising teams and the
local volunteers. The main aim
of the volunteer programme
is to give students who are
interested in sports and in
organising sport events the
chance to experience a unique
adventure, to meet new people
from different countries,
learning about the values of
sport, and gain valuable work
experience through volunteering.

The programme includes

working areas within in the

fields of media, communication,

transport, accommodation and

of course in sports venues, all

the while assisting organisers,

referees, and the participants

themselves. All this in the

context of an international sport

event, where the volunteers are

able to network and improve

their future opportunities

through like-minded people

as well as having an enjoyable

time! All volunteers have to

organise themselves is their

travel to and from the official

airport/station of the event.

From there, local organisers will

provide internal transport, full

accommodation, and meals for

the duration of the event, and

along with having an amazing

time at the event, the organisers

will provide them with a

certificate indicating the working

position and hours.

We are once again looking for

local, national, and international

volunteers. Interested

participants are encouraged to

register their interest via the

European Universities Games

official webpage. If you are

unsure about applying, we urge

you to check out EUSA Insider

on https://www.eusa.eu/media/

eusa-insider where you can hear

about the student experiences

from the international volunteer

programme.
