With just over two years until the start of the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games, the LA28 Olympic and Paralympic committees will begin accepting applications to join the event’s volunteer crew in July.
Officials will begin accepting the applications on July 14, the day that the application portal opens. The volunteer application portal can be accessed here.
In a statement from LA28 Executive Officer Reynold Hoover, he described volunteers as the “backbone of the Games,” in an effort to urge people to apply to volunteer.
“As fans fill the seats and athletes take the global stage, behind every event, every venue and every moment is the LA28 Volunteer Crew,” Hoover said in the release, reported by CBS News. “Volunteers are the backbone of the Games. They are a friendly face who helps welcome the world, create memorable experiences and bring the Olympic and Paralympic spirit to life.”
