JOIN THE TEAM OF VOLUNTEERS OF MUTUA MADRILEÑA MASTERS MADRID
Once again, the Organisiers of the Mutua Madrileña Masters Madrid welcomes and encourages you to participate as a volunteer during the tournament that takes place in the Recinto Ferial de la Casa de Casa from the 11th to the 19th of October 2008.
This year will see the seventh edition of the tournament, and it will take place for the last time in the Recinto Ferial de la Casa de Campo. The tournament, on its way to becoming one of the best tennis tournaments in the World, will change dates and location in 2009, taking place in May in the new facilities of the “Caja Magica”.
Therefore, this year will be a nostalgic one in its history. We will say farewell to the facility that has seen the tournament consolidate its position as one of the biggest events in the sporting and social calendar of Spain. We want the volunteers to be a part of this moment, and likewise, they will be a fundamental part in the new combined tournament project from 2009 onwards.
To be a volunteer in the MMMM means being a fundamental part of it and as such, we hope that’s what you will feel. We all recognise the role of the volunteers and how they help improve our work.
In addition, we are conscious of the value that the Volunteers bring to the tournament. For this, we have initiated a number of programmes during the year targeted specifically at the volunteers in an effort to demonstrate how important they are and to consolidate this importance. These actions range from the sending of a calendar and a Christmas letter of congratulations, to contests in the Grand Slams with interesting prizes. And we have so many ideas for the future!!!
If you want to take part as volunteer now you can do it. You will have to complete the on-line form that you will find in the on-line form here, and in a brief period of time we will contact ourselves with you to summon yourself for a few personal interviews that we will do here later on.
As an improvement this year, we offer you the opportunity to know beforehand the details of the positions therefore in the application form you should choose at least two of them. If you want a description of the positions then click here.
Please complete all the steps that we indicate and when you come to the meeting please do not forget to bring us the copy of the form (printed) and a photocopy of your ID card or Passport.
Those of you that are not resident in Madrid or in Spain, will also have to complete the form on-line, and after a short period we will be in touch with you.
To be part the group of volunteers of the Mutua Madrileña requires dedication, time, effort and COMMITMENT, but it also offers you the opportunity to entertain and interact with people in a different environment. To integrate into the team requires a level of responsibility that you will have to bear in mind when carrying out your duties and also during the personal interviews along with the training before the event.
FOR YOUR PARTICIPATION YOU WILL RECEIVE:
- Complete uniform (trousers, long sleeve polo shirt and sneakers).
- Volunteer's Accreditation. Personal and untransferable.
- Catering (lunch or dinner according to the schedule that you choose).
- 16 tickets: 2 tickets per session, from Saturday, 11th of October (previous) until Wednesday, 15th of October (including night session), so that you can invite friends or family.
- A certificate signed by the Tournament Director where he will credit your participation in the event.
- Accident Insurance.
We hope to count on you to participate in the Team of Volunteers of the Mutua Madrileña Masters Madrid. I hope that this information has been useful to you. I remain at your disposal to resolve any queries that you may have.
