As Minnesota 's largest tourism event we want to welcome our guests properly. Volunteers meet the teams and referees at the airport and assist them with tournament information and connect them to the Schwan's USA CUP transportation. Lots of walking so great opportunity to get exercise!
Youth ages 11-16 ride their bicycles to collect game cards from field manager tents and deliver them to the scoring office.
Field managers are the lifeblood of the tournament! As a field manager, you're the first point of contact and information for tournament attendees and referees. You're stationed at a field manager tent in the middle of the action and you get to watch from one to four fields of soccer games at a time. You help games get started on time, answer questions from curious parents and players, make tournament headquarters aware of game start times and any problems on the field, summon medical personnel if needed, and assist the referees stationed at your tent. If you like meeting new people and watching soccer, this is the place for you.
Certified first responders, EMTs, paramedics or athletic trainers are stationed at field manager tents or on one of seven specially modified medical carts to provide emergency care and, if necessary, transport to on-site medical facility.
