Information for prospective volunteers

Vorlesen

Voluntary service in sport is offered throughout Germany and aimed at all age groups.

The voluntary service in sport

  • is an educational and orientation year
  • would like to get people enthusiastic about making a voluntary social commitment and assuming responsibility
  • provides insights into an exciting field
  • gives young people their first professional experience
  • qualifies people for work, studies and volunteering.

The majority of our volunteers are under 26. In many places, there are also programmes for people in other stages of life. Special training and support is available for these people.
Possible places of assignment in the area of sport include clubs and sports facilities that regularly organise games, sports and leisure activities for children and teenagers, e.g. sports clubs, sports associations, nursery schools (promoting physical activity) or (sports) schools. All the volunteers receive training for their work and can acquire licences.
German Sports Youth is the umbrella organisation of the agencies for the Voluntary Social Year (FSJ) in sport. The dsj member organisations are generally responsible for the administration, organisation and execution of the FSJ in sport as the agencies. The contact for prospective volunteers is the relevant agency.

More than three thousand, mostly young, people are currently completing a voluntary service in sport.
