Back to Top Volunteer FAQ What if I can't work the minimum shift requirement: Priority is given to applicants who can commit a minimum of four shifts. Most committees are looking for volunteers with flexible availability when developing their tournament week schedules. You may still volunteer, but you will be assigned to only those committees needing help during your indicated time availability. How do I know if I have been selected to be a volunteer for the event? All applicants are accepted if they fulfill the requirements (See above). If none of the committees you've selected as your top three choices are available, you will be notified of what is available. If you are not interested in the committee(s) available, simply decline the offer and ask that you be added to a waitlist on the committee you prefer. Is a position on my committee of choice guaranteed? First choice selections are not guaranteed, but the sooner you submit your volunteer application, the better chance you have to be assigned to that committee. It is rare that someone is not assigned to one of the three committees of their choice. If we are unable to assign you to one of your three choices, you will be notified of what is available and have the option of accepting the position, being placed on a waiting list or requesting removal from the tournament database. My friend and I are coming together can we be scheduled to work during the same time? You may indicate on the application that you would like to be scheduled with a friend. We will make every effort to accommodate your request. However, you must be members of the same committee. It is difficult to coordinate schedules for two or more people if they are on different committees, as shift times vary among separate committees. Additional Questions: If you have any questions about volunteering please contact Julie Finn, Volunteer Coordinator by email at jfinn@brunoeventteam.com or call her at 925-725-0148. Back to Top |
