Join the team that powers UNF Esports!

Whether you are passionate about gaming, production, technology, or hospitality, the University of North Florida Esports offers dynamic volunteer opportunities that put students at the heart of the action. We offer two main categories of volunteer positions: Front of House and Back of House.

From behind-the-scenes tech support to front-line guest services, you'll gain a one-of-a-kind hands-on experiential learning opportunity, develop valuable skills, and strengthen your resume, all while helping bring our events to life!
