About Volunteering

Hosting an event such as the 2021 NCAA® Final Four requires a deep lineup of dedicated, friendly volunteers. NCAA Final Four volunteers are the first and often most important touchpoint for visitors. While volunteers are not needed inside the game venue, they ensure off-court events run smoothly and help Indianapolis make a great impression on hundreds of thousands of visitors.

The NCAA and the Indianapolis Host Committee estimate a need for approximately 2,000 volunteers to successfully host the 2021 NCAA Final Four and events. Volunteers must be able to commit to three (3), four-hour shifts between April 2-6, 2021.

As planning continues surrounding the April events, volunteer opportunities will be announced at a later date. If you are interested in receiving the most up-to-date information on volunteer opportunities, it is highly recommended to register here.
