sportsfest does not run without our amazing teams of volunteers

Our event really does only run because amazing people give up their time to be involved behind the scenes to ensure that the young adults that attend have an amazing time. There are so many opportunities to get involved in Sportsfest beyond being a player. You can volunteer for a specific church that is attending Sportsfest, volunteer as a general volunteer, or if you are looking at taking it to the next level, why not look at being a part of our Sportsfest Operations Team.

Please note that volunteers will need to have a valid Western Australian Working with Children’s Card. There are additional requirements for members of the Operations Team.


Churches volunteers

Participating churches are always on the look out for more volunteers. If your church is attending Sportsfest then please talk directly with your Sportsfest co-ordinator to let them know that you are available.

Sportsfest operations team

This team is the powerhouse behind Sportsfest. There is an amazing team of volunteers that work tirelessly in the lead up to the weekend and over the event.

  • Data Input/ Results Management

  • First Aid Co-ordination

  • Volunteer Co-ordination

  • Health and Safety (Including COVID Management)

Members of the Operations Team have heavy involvement in the weekend and are therefore not able to be Coordinators, volunteers, or players for a church team. The operational team need to be available from early afternoon on the Friday through to mid-afternoon on Monday of the Sportsfest Weekend. Accommodation for the weekend is provided for the Operational Team.
