Venus Williams, Andy Roddick, and Billie Jean King are some of the biggest names in tennis and coming to Philadelphia this summer! Don't miss this incredible opportunity to volunteer for the only professional tennis organization in Philly alongside some of the best athletes to ever play the game! The Philadelphia Freedoms are excited to be relocating to Saint Joseph’s University for the upcoming 2017 season, which makes it the first time this event has been back in Philly since 1974. We are putting together the best possible volunteer staff filled with enthusiastic and hard-working individuals from July 17-29. As a volunteer, you will play a pivotal role in helping the Freedom's success by undertaking the roles of usher, ticket taker, transportation, or VIP hospitality.
In exchange for your time, volunteers will be provided with a free volunteer t-shirt for the season, a pre-match meal voucher, free parking, and a companion ticket with exclusions of the 24th and 25th. The volunteers working the matches on the 24th and 25th will also receive two tickets for the season finale on July 29th. At the end of the season, we will also be hosting a volunteer reception with the amazing opportunity to meet Billie Jean King herself!
There will be a mandatory orientation for all volunteers on June 20th at 6pm. Before matches begin we will send an email confirming the days you will be working.
If you are interested in volunteering please fill out our volunteer form.
