The 2009 Street Soccer USA Cup
July 31 - August 2, 2009 - Washington Kastles Stadium (between 9th & 11th Street and H Street, N.W., Washington, D.C.)
There are a few different ways to participate:
- Team Guides: Individuals and groups serving as team guides are a core part of our volunteer team. As a team guide, your role is to help welcome the players to DC and provide positive support at they compete over the course of the weekend. In addition, team guides also assist in ensuring that players arrive at the right location at the right time for scheduled games, meals and other events. Team guides must be available Friday July 31st-Sunday August 2nd.
- Event Volunteers: We are looking for people to volunteer throughout the tournament to help keep the event in order. This includes cleanup as well as handing out food and water. We would like event volunteers to be willing to work at least a full day, but half days are acceptable as well.
- Cheering Sections: Creating a group of people to cheer the soccer players throughout the tournament. Cheering sections can come to the tournament for a specific block of time or can be assigned to a specific team and cheer the team on throughout the tournament. We would love for cheering sections to come prepared with banners/posters/t-shirts etc. to cheer on the players.
