The city has trained 750 Host City Volunteers who has offered their time and services in areas where their support are needed. About half of them are roaming the streets around Central and on the beachfront as well as the FIFA Fan Fest at St Georges Park (and airport, some shopping centres, etc, etc) to disseminate Host City Guides and help visitors with directions, times and transport information. The other half has been deployed at the transport points to and from the stadium and Fan Fest. These volunteers are easily recognisable in their yellow and green Host City outfits. I encountered these to young ladies on the Donkin Reserve when I popped down there the other day.
