Delegation Assistant Liaison
Serving as a Delegation Assistant Liaison (DAL) during the 2009 Special Olympics World Winter Games is a very rewarding volunteer position, as a DAL plays an important role in a delegation’s experience. DALs will have a unique opportunity to spend approximately two weeks with a specific delegation.
The DAL will be the lead volunteer assigned to a visiting delegation of coaches and athletes. The DAL will be the Games Organizing Committee’s official representation with each delegation. The DAL will work closely with the Head of Delegation (HOD) and accompany the HOD to all official meetings and events.
Volunteers seeking to become DAL should be bilingual and have knowledge of the foreign country and culture of the assigned delegation. We also need DALs for our English speaking delegations. The candidate must have strong communication skills and be flexible and creative in solving challenges. The DAL must be able to commit to two weeks as the candidate will reside with the delegation during the World Winter Games. Experience working with diverse groups is a plus.
