The Sony Ericsson Open, the fifth-largest tennis tournament in the world, is looking for volunteers to work at the 2010 event, March 24-April 4, at the Tennis Center at Crandon Park.

Once again the top players in the world including Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Andy Murray, Andy Roddick, Novak Djokovic, Maria Sharapova, Serena Williams, Venus Williams, Dinara Safina, and Jelena Jankovic will descend upon Miami to compete for one of the most prestigious titles in tennis.

Volunteers are needed for a variety of positions throughout the tournament, including transportation, guest safety, court ushers and ticket checkers, just to name a few. Qualifying rounds are March 22 and 23 with the main draw starting on March 24.

In addition to being a part of one of the world’s largest tennis events, volunteers receive one of the best benefit packages in sports including a complete FILA uniform, 10 complimentary tickets for the tournament, parking and meals during their shifts, and sponsor gifts.

Each individual is asked to work a minimum of 45 hours (normally nine five-hour shifts) which can be scheduled around their own work commitments.

The staging of the Sony Ericsson Open will require more than 900 volunteers and 400 ball people-- the largest volunteer presence for any tennis tournament in the world.

To get involved, please visit our website at www.sonyericssonopen.com or contact the Volunteer Office at 305-444-0533 or e-mail volunteers@sonyericssonopen.com.
