When Casandra Asoufi applied to volunteer at the 2026 FIFA World Cup back in September, she didn’t think much of it.
That was until she received word just a few weeks before kick-off that she had been selected from thousands of applicants.
Not only was Asoufi going to be part of the World Cup; she was going to be on the pitch in the centre circle as part of pre-match ceremonies at Toronto Stadium.
