Volunteer at an Event


SODE conducts several sports and fundraising events throughout the year all across the state. The events are driven by a core group of volunteers along with hundreds of "day-of/Class B" volunteers who come out to execute the various aspects of the event.

If you are interested in volunteering for one of our sports events, please check the sports events that are coming up in the calendar of events section and contact Mark Wise at mwise@udel.edu or 302-831-4669.

If you are interested in volunteering for one of our fundraising events, please check the fundraising events that are coming up in the calendar of events section and contact Lisa Smith at lismith@udel.edu or 302-831-3482.

Note: Event volunteers must be at least 13 years of age. However, please note that at some events there will not be volunteer opportunities for children ages 13-15.
