Therefore, the Orange CHAN 2014 Local Organising Committee is proud to officially announce the African Nations Championships 2014 Volunteer Programme. This programme, which is a call to all South Africans and the entire African continent, is crucial for the smooth operations and implementations of the tournament. The volunteers, who will serve as the public face of CHAN 2014 will be the highly instrumental in the critical departments of the tournament such as Marketing, Media, Accreditation, Transport, Logistics and Protocol services. The Local Organising Committee CEO, Mvuzo Mbebe stressed the importance of having an efficient Volunteer Programme.
