Games are (90) minutes long (as long as it does not go into OT) and clean up should not take any longer than (30) minutes.
As a volunteer, here is what we are asked to do:
The Non-Profit Organization will ensure that all of its Volunteers wear black pants or shorts (where approved) and black shoes (hard toe or sneaker) or other closed in shoe (where approved) with appropriate soles. Hats and shirts may be provided by Legends at check-in. You may bring your own hat if it is only SOLID BLACK.

Any Volunteer reporting to the Facility out of proper uniform will not be allowed to work and will not be considered in the count of the minimum number of Volunteers supplied by the Non-Profit Organization until they are in proper uniform. If the Non-Profit Organization provides less than the minimum number of Volunteers required per this Agreement as a result of a Volunteer not being in uniform, the Non-Profit Organization is subjected to a Twenty-Five Dollar ($25.00) deduction for each Volunteer not in proper uniform.

Non-Profit Organization Volunteers – As instructed by Legends for each Event, must arrive between one hundred twenty (120) minutes to sixty (60) minutes before scheduled gate opening as approved by both parties.
