Most of the additional volunteers needed are relatively untrained positions.
And this is different from a single-fielded division how? If anything, having 2 fields allows for some added fault-tolerance in this regard.

1. Refs need breaks in between matches and if you're having two seperate fields, they scorekeepers can't just keep getting up and walking back and forth between scoring tables(the people at the scoring table are what I define as scorekeepers, different years have allowed different definitions).
2. There IS more room for error. 2 fields allow for less tolerance because it implies the solution to a field fault can't just be "play on another field" or "play through matches on one field while the other field sorts out it's issues" because then that could mess with match separation.
