Looking at your list, Referee, Robot Inspector, Safety Advisor, and Judge would require credentials and/or experience. Are you currently based in Israel? If so, definitely volunteer for the event there (which is not yet listed). If you are in North America, volunteer at Regional or District events in these capacities.
If you want to get a real feeling for the event, Field Repair/Reset is the way to go. You will work with a wonderful group of volunteers in one division, be on the floor, close to the action, and get to know the Robots in your division.

Tuesday is a little early, so I would pick the evening, so you can settle in and arrive bright-eyed and bushy-tailed on Wednesday morning and help with field preparation.
Register on VIMS now, that will put your name at the top of the list.
