FIFA Club World Cup

ATLANTA — Calling all soccer fans: FIFA is looking for volunteers to help with the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup this summer.

The global tournament is the largest-ever club soccer event hosted in the United States.

It starts June 14th and features dozens of matches across 12 stadiums, including six games at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta.

FIFA says it wants passionate volunteers who love the beautiful game to be part of the festivities.

“The United States will host the 32 best clubs in the world and their fans, and our amazing volunteers will be the smiling faces that welcome them and create the joyful atmosphere that makes FIFA events so special. This will be an opportunity for them to represent their Host Cities and share their unique culture with the world,” said FIFA President Gianni Infantino.
