Para Asian Cup: Volunteer opportunities

We’re excited to announce a unique opportunity for La Trobe students to volunteer at the 2023 Para Asian Cup​​​​!

Australia has been awarded the hosting rights for this year’s competition, as the first IFCPF international tournament ever to be held on Australian shores and the first men’s and women’s tournament in the Asia-Oceania region.

This tournament will take place over two weeks in Naarm/Melbourne, from 31 October – 12 November.
As football is the number one participation sport in Australia and cerebral palsy is the most common physical disability in childhood, we want to maximise the impact of this event by offering you the opportunity to volunteer, develop your skills and create core memories and experiences that will change the game, on and off the pitch.

Opportunities include:

Media & Digital Content

Are you studying sports media, digital content or journalism? We’re looking for people to support our editorial, content producers and media team deliver this exciting event.

Event Operations & Hospitality

Get behind the scenes experience executing our event alongside Football Australia’s talented event operations team, from the opening ceremonies, match days, and VIP functions.

Team Services

Join one of our visiting teams to assist them during their stay. Teams from Japan, Thailand, India, Iran and Nepal will all be participating.

Marketing

Join our marketing team to help deliver an exceptional venue experience. You’ll assist with the venue branding, fan engagement and precinct activations to ensure our fans enjoy the tournament.

Medical/Physio

Are you studying sports science, physio or medicine? You can volunteer with our staff to gain insights into high performance sports science and/or all-abilities sporting.
