CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS: FOLEY TOURNAMENT SCHEDULE HITS FULL STRIDE

Call For VolunteersAs the championship soccer season kicks into full gear over the next month at the new Foley Sports Tourism Complex, so does the need for event volunteers.

 

“Our community has embraced this vision of making Foley a top national sports venue, with great support from our sponsors, business partners and sister departments in the city,” said Director of Sports Tourism Don Staley. “Now as our schedule of major events begins to peak, we need to deepen our pool of volunteers for specific needs of our rights holders. If you like being on the fields and up close to the action of top NCAA, collegiate and U.S. Youth Soccer tournaments, request a volunteer date and time of your choice to come on out and join us.”
