12,000 volunteers are needed for the sports festival, which is expected to see around 10,000 athletes and officials from up to 170 countries. What are the requirements? Very simple! Anyone who is at least 18 years old on June 1, 2025, speaks German or English fluently and is available for at least four event days in the summer of 2025 can apply.
Those interested in the volunteer program have many opportunities at the FISU World University Games 2025 Rhine-Ruhr. There are about 50 different job fields in total. These are as diverse as the sports festival itself: in the “Sports” functional area, volunteers gain fascinating insights into one of the many sports. in “Communication”, they work with media representatives from all over the world. and in ‘Culture & Side Events’, volunteers help deliver the cultural and non-sporting entertainment programme.
Mirjam Scheffler, Senior Manager Volunteers at the 2025 FISU Rhine-Ruhr World University Games, says the volunteers will shape the image of the respective host cities during the event and act as contact persons at the sports venues: “As members of the volunteer group, we have already gained a lot of experience as volunteers in various events. We know what is important in the organization and what challenges need to be overcome. With our expertise, we want to enable volunteers to have an unforgettable experience and get a glimpse of the biggest multi-sport event in the world in 2025.”
