The development and success of the sports club depend not only on the offerings but primarily on the people who engage voluntarily for it. Due to societal changes, the systematic recruitment of volunteers and the implementation of retention measures have become important leadership tasks. The practice-oriented guide "Volunteering in Sports Clubs" sheds light on the background of societal changes, presents concrete approaches for finding volunteers, describes successful retention measures, and addresses the limitations of volunteer work. The search for volunteers no longer has to be difficult. On the contrary, those who understand the background and apply the right steps will enjoy the process.
