Commonwealth Youth Games organisers will work upto deadline on volunteer recruitment

Currently the organisers are in the final stages of allocating all the team liaison positions, considered the most important of all the jobs.

Commonwealth Youth Games Chairman Geoff Karren has told 3FM that he anticipates they will still be recruiting volunteer’s right upto the deadline.

Finding the 1500 volunteers needed is so far proving to be the biggest headache for event organisers.

They will be required to give up their time during the games in September to help in all aspects of the running of the major event.

Currently the organisers are in the final stages of allocating all the team liaison positions, considered the most important of all the jobs.

Mr Karren told 3FM that once that is taken care of they concentrate on filling the rest of the positions.
