The Olympic Games have become the largest mega sport events in modern times. This growth has posed a number of challenges for host administrators of Olympic Committees such as safety and security, facilities and accomdation, as well as volunteer services. As Olympic Games have increased in size, the reliance of volunteers for service provision has also increased. Recent Summer Olympic Games have relied on the services of over 60,000 volunteers. To ascertain that the services provided by volunteers are sufficient, volunteers should possess a knowledge base of Olympic Education. Administrators of Olympic Games will have to incorporate certain administrative practices in their recruitment and training of volunteers to make sure that volunteers have a knowledge base of Olympic education. The purpose of this paper is to describe how Olympic education may be of use to the Olympic Games Volunteers and be of relevance to enhancing the quality of service provided by volunteers. The objective of this paper is to present suggestions for administrators of Olympic Games as to how Olympic education can be implemented in the recruiting and training process used to prepare volunteers for the provision of services at upcoming games. To fulfill the objective of this paper, the main body is divided into three parts: (1) volunteerism at the Olympic Games, (2) Olympic education and Olympic volunteerism, and (3) suggestions for administrators of Olympic Games. The paper concludes with the following five suggestions for administrators of Olympic Games: (1) offer Olympic education courses outside of the regular training sessions provided to volunteers, (2) offer/expand Olympic education sessions integrated into the regular volunteer training sessions, (3) encourage volunteers to self-educate themselves on Olympism and the Olympic Movement, (4) publish a bi-weekly newsletter for volunteers focusing on
