Qatar FIFA World Cup Guests Will Have New Roles in 2022
For the first time in history, some of the guests at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar will be playing roles besides that of fan and spectator. In fact, there will be so many varied roles to play at the World Cup that volunteers and guests alike might need to spend some time getting familiar with what they can do before the tournament actually begins. Here are just three of these new roles: 1) World Cup volunteers 2) FIFA Ambassador 3) Fan Zone volunteers.
Introduction
The Qatar World Cup is quickly approaching. It will be the first time that an Arab country will host a FIFA world cup, and it's been six years since the last one. This means that there are many who are unfamiliar with what goes on at a world cup or what to expect when traveling to Qatar for this event. With this post, I hope to give you a little insight into what the experience of guests at the Qatar world cup will be like so you can plan accordingly.
What are the new roles?
Visitors to Qatar for the 2022 FIFA World Cup will be playing a significant role, both on and off the field. While they will enjoy the same amenities as any other guest, they can also get more involved by volunteering at any of the 12 stadiums or helping out at one of several fan zones that have been set up throughout Doha. The Qatar Football Association (QFA) has partnered with FIFA Fan ID so guests can collect their own personalized card, which provides visa-free entry into the country and grants them access to games along with additional benefits. The QFA is also making every effort to make sure visitors are fully aware of everything happening around them while enjoying their time in Qatar.
How can I get involved?
One of the most popular ways to get involved with Qatar's world cup is to volunteer. Volunteer opportunities are available for individuals, organizations, and large groups. There will be many roles for volunteers with differing commitments and abilities. Some of these roles include: stadium greeter, coach, translator, event volunteer and more! FIFA has a great list on their website of what volunteers should expect if they decide to take part in this initiative:
• Minimum commitment: 3 hours per week during the period leading up to the tournament
• Maximum number of hours you can commit per week before December 31st 2021 (the end date)
• Minimum commitment from January 1st 2020 (the start date): 20 hours per month
• Commitment after December 31st 2021 (end date): unlimited
What are the benefits?
In Qatar, guests of the 2022 FIFA world cup will have new roles. They will be able to engage with and get to know the locals before and after the event. Qataris are excited to welcome their international friends and show them what life is like here. In addition, there will be an exclusive VIP experience for all visitors that only lasts for a week. There's even an opportunity to take part in a football match at the Khalifa International Stadium during your visit! Finally, guests who make the journey to Qatar can also enjoy other popular tourist attractions such as Doha Corniche or Souq Waqif Market.
Conclusion
In conclusion, Qatar is looking to the future with their exciting and innovative plans for the world cup. With new roles for guests and a focus on sustainability, we can be confident that Qatar will handle this event with care and excitement. The people of Qatar are still ecstatic about winning the bid for hosting the 2022 World Cup. While there have been some worries about how many football stadiums need to be built and who will build them, these issues seem small when compared to the overwhelming joy of being chosen as host nation.
