The Who, What, When, and Where of Volunteering
For Football, Volleyball,
Women's Basketball,
Gymnastics, Soccer, Softball and Baseball

Football is one of our most
important sports due to the large number of fans we will come in contact with
throughout each game day. It is also the sport that consistently requires
the highest number of volunteers and is a great place to get to know other SMAers.
Who:
8 - 15 Volunteers
What Will We Be
Doing?:
Most
volunteers work at Fan Fiesta. Within Fan Fiesta, some will work at
stations where fans are able to test their QB skills throwing footballs, others
will help youngsters run through our running inflatable where participants will
run through some inflatable linemen and up and over an inflatable wall. We
also have a table within Fan Fiesta where someone will sit and give away
posters, stickers, etc.
Also, every game we have a giveaway
in the north and south end of the stadium. (in the Circle K Red Zone and
Bruegger's KnotHole) SMAers will be in charge of giving away beads, foam
fingers, tshirts, etc.
What Should We Wear?:
SMAers should wear their SMA shirts
or Active Volunteer Polos with a pair of khaki shorts or pants. If someone
doesn't have an SMA shirt they should wear a red or blue Arizona shirt and if
someone doesn't have khaki's just wear something similar, we don't mind.
When Should We
Show Up?:
For 4
O'clock games, SMAers should arrive at Noon and plan to stay until 4:10.
For 7 O'clock games, SMAers should
arrive at 3:30 and plan to stay until 7:10.
Where Should We
Go?:
All SMAers
should meet on Bear Down Field.

Volleyball, Women's Basketball and
Gymnastics are great sports to volunteer at because they are slower paced and
allow SMAers to get Sports Marketing experience without the time commitment of a
Football game. (Not to mention the air conditioning!)
Who:
3 - 5 Volunteers
What Will We Be
Doing?:
SMAers will be passing out
programs, helping fans enter contests, making sure we're all set up for our
on-court promotions and executing the on-court promotions.

arrive at 6 and plan to stay until 8:30.
Where Should We
Go?:
All SMAers should meet inside McKale, we have a marketing table set up by the entrance to the arena seating. This table is found by entering the McKale Center to the left of the
main ticket office and proceeding down the hallway (not down the ramp) and
around the corner to the left.

Soccer is a great sport for SMAers to volunteer at to get the sports marketing experience. The stadium is located off campus, so if you want to volunteer but need a ride, let the Eboard know!

Baseball is a very fun sport that
allows SMAers to throw out prizes, participate in giveaways, and help with the
ever popular "Dizzy Bat Race!" One of the perks of Baseball is the ability
to choose from a large number of home games to volunteer, being a sport that you
can fit into your schedule.
Who:
3 - 5 Volunteers

programs, choosing contestants for our crowd and field promotions, throwing out

Softball is very similar to Baseball
but instead of the "Dizzy Bat Race" SMAers will be helping with the "Amazing
Helmet Race." One difference with Softball is the addition of "Bingo"
which keeps one person busy watching the game taking down numbers, and getting
those numbers to the PA announcer.

programs, helping fans sign up for our crowd and on-field promotions, setting up
