Town Introduce Matchday Ambassadors - Ipswich Town News
Town are introducing a team of 'matchday ambassadors' for the 2014/15 season, fulfilling a role similar to the games makers at the 2012 London Olympics. The ambassadors are amongst a number of initiatives Town say they are looking to introduce ahead of the new campaign.
The volunteers’ responsibilities will include meeting and greeting fans at the perimeter of the stadium, increasing the assistance available to supporters requiring directions or advice and increasing the interaction with younger fans in build-up to games.
Town are hoping to replicate the success of other Football League clubs who have previously recruited ambassador teams.
The Blues are looking to recruit enough ambassadors to ensure that there is a strong presence at each home league and cup match. For full details and to apply, visit the club site. The closing date for applications is Monday 7th July.
