FAQ


Here you will find the key information about your volunteer assignment.
More details are available in the Volunteer Guide.
 

Registration opens in early to mid-February and must be completed via Swiss Volunteers. The link can be found above under "Assignment."

Your personal volunteer accreditation (wristband) will be provided along with the clothing.

The common room for the volunteers is located in the basement of the Sport Lodge, House A (next to the sports center / the side courts).

All volunteers will receive two T-shirts, as well as a hoodie, a rain jacket and a cap on site.
 

For sustainability reasons, hoodies and rain jackets are generally ordered for a two-year period (2028 & 2029).
However, as the European Championship will take place in 2027, we are making an exception: The clothing will only be purchased for this tournament and may be kept after the event. If any items are returned, we will donate them to projects in Africa or Moldova.

The parking is located at the Kirchgemeindehaus, Untergstaadstrasse 8, in Gstaad.

Luggage can be stored in the basement of the Sport Lodge, House A (next to the Sports Center) in the volunteer lounge until departure.
