The call is out for people interested in volunteering at next year's Arafura Games.
More than 1100 people are needed to help out at the event, that starts in six months' time in Darwin.
There will be four more sports than the previous games, with the return of volleyball and softball and [b][i]the introduction of darts[/b][/i] and Muaythai.
The NT Minister for Sport, Karl Hampton is encouraging people to sign up as volunteers.
"I just think it's very worthwhile to get out there, it may be long hours, and many various type of duties as a volunteer, you've just got to get in there and get your hands dirty," Mr Hampton said.
"I think they can gain a lot really, particularly from their satisfaction that we'll hopefully run a very successful Arafura Games. It's great for the Darwin and the Northern Territory community.
"It's an important event that we in the Northern Territory Government acknowledge so I think what you get out of it is what you put into it," he said.
