International Table Tennis Camp 2022
Description: B75 is a value-based table tennis club with professional trainers and players. The Work Camp will be a part of our annual International Table Tennis Summer Camp. 200 trainers and players from all over the world will gather for three weeks of learning, fun, making new friends and much more. In 2021, the participants came from 43 countries. The International Summer Camp has existed for 17 years. This is the fourth year they are hosting a Work Camp. The first three times have been a success and they are looking forward to this year.
Type of Work: The different tasks can include assisting in the kitchen, with all practicalities except cooking, and serving the food to the other camp participants. Similar tasks can include helping with cleaning assistance or driving shuttle buses to and from the airport, train station, ferry terminals and practice halls. Other tasks can include overseeing activities with the camp participants and the smallest children, helping in the administration with check-in, check out and room preparations and making video reports for international live streaming, writing articles and taking photos for social media. It will also be possible to be a sparring partner in the Table Tennis Camp and interact with the camp participants. As a volunteer, your work week will consist of 5 working days and 2 days off, though these days will be rotating. You might have to work at the weekend, but then you will have time off during the week.Your workday will be no more than 7 hours, and you will be working with local volunteers. Work starts in the morning and the afternoon. Some tasks, like being a part of the video crew, mean you must work at different times during the day. There will be a rotation between the tasks to make the days vary for the volunteers. The camp is good for you, if you like to be in an international environment and can adapt to changes.
Accommodation: Accommodation:The volunteers will be sleeping in classrooms. There will be mattresses, pillows, and bedding. Please bring your own sleeping bag. Food:All Work Camp participants eat in the canteen with all the other participants. Both breakfast, lunch and dinner will be provided by the Work Camp host.Bathroom facilities: The bathrooms are next to the classrooms where you will be sleeping. They have washing machines available, which are for free.

It is free to enjoy the beautiful nature of Northern Jutland, but some activities might require an extra charge. The host will not cover additional charges.The Work Camp will be taking place very close to the beach, so there are good opportunities to go for a swim.You can arrange a day trip to Skagen, the most Northern tip of Denmark where two oceans meet. Skagen is famous for the special light which has attracted many painters, cosy yellow and red houses and much more.
