Therefore, how to use the strength of volunteer in both efficient and effective ways would be an essential issue for the government to push a Health policy successfully and cause less financial expenditure. Purposes: In the study, we would try to demonstrate the demographic data on the study population. Also, we sought to find the variables among the demographic information which may have significant differences among the factors of motives, the willingness, and the practical services as a sport volunteer. Lastly, we explored the correlations between the factors of the motives, the willingness and the practical service among the sport volunteers in a particular group, respectively. Methods: The participants were all recruited from a community-based non-profit sport volunteer organization, and the questionnaire survey was used. Firstly, we collected the demographic variables among the participants and then independent t-test for providing the characteristics among the participants.
