In addition, if you are in charge of an early morning competition where volunteers can not catch up with the first train, such as a marathon scheduled to start at 6:00 am, proceed with the study with the plan to have you enter the venue at the last train of the previous day.

Tokyo Olympics volunteer examination committee is making its rule of SNS
An opinion came out at the volunteer examination committee held in Tokyo.
Recently, “part-timer terrorism”, which damages the image of a company, has become a social issue, with employees of restaurants and retailers shooting up annoying videos and uploading them to SNS.
Mr. Akira Seike stated that “it is not desirable to send videos that can not be permitted in society, such as entering a refrigerator at a convenience store. It is against the spirit of the Olympics.”
It was also necessary to pay attention to the audience who did not want to appear in the videos and images.
Professor Ninomiya warns against SNS
According to Masaya Ninomiya, an associate professor at Bunkyo University（文教大学）, “Unlike the “part-timer terrorism”, the effects against players, against audiences or against volunteers, etc. are supposed to be included.
This includes breaking the player’s playing environment and the mood for the audience to enjoy. It is said that
The terms of participation had already described SNS postings to follow the organization’s agreement, but the details were not formulated.
If you can not keep the terms of participation, you may lose your volunteer status.
The volunteers will be served the lunch boxes
The committee also discussed the meals of volunteers.
The organizing committee office was considering distribution of the lunch box, but the committee members said that it “improves their motivation” and that there are many opinions that “hot meal (warm meal) should be served”.
There were also discussions to consider vegetarians as well.
The food was not approved by the committee, and carried over to the next and subsequent committee meetings held in late August or September.
