隨著社會的進步，有愈來愈多本著奉獻的誠意、利他的情操、助人的胸懷及服務的熱忱之社會公益人士，踴躍參與志願工作。2009年我國將主辦第21屆聽障奧運會及第8屆世界運動會。隨著國際賽會規模的擴大，所需投入之財力、物力及人力開發等，主辦單位無不希望以組織高品質、高效率的運動賽會服務團隊為目標，以結合眾人之力量與熱忱，使賽會活動能順利推動及進行。充分瞭解並掌握志願服務人員的參與動機與相關考量因素，投其所好，讓體育志工能「人盡其才」的發揮專長來服務大眾，同時也能讓體育志工在服務過程中，獲得他們所期望的滿足，是不可忽略的重要課題。深入了解參與體育志工動機，將有助於體育志工在提供服務的同時，除能達成機構組織的目標外，亦能使體育志工達到人盡其才，適才適用，發揮人性光輝與實現自我理想，創造體育運動正向且積極的實質意義。

Following the progress of the society, more and more people, with the sincerity of devotion, sentiment of benefit others, heart of helping and enthusiasm of serving people, are willing to join voluntary service. The 21st Hearing Impaired Olympic and the 8th World Athletic Games will be held in 2009 in Taiwan, the scope of finance, resource and man power will, following the trend of expansion for international games, be greatly in demand. Every game authority would hope to organize a service team of high quality and efficiency, combining people power and passion, so as to let game activities progress smoothly. To comprehend and grasp the participation motivations of the voluntary service personnel completely, take the related factors into consideration, give them what they would like, let sport volunteers gain their sense of achievement while giving full scope of their talents to serve public, would be a too important issue to ignore. Deeply understand the participation motivation of sport volunteers, apart from helping them to teach the organizational goal during their service period, would also make them contribute their talents entirely, let their humanity shine and realize their self esteem, and create a positive and proactive genuine sense towards sport.
