Yes, Atoll is another option. I personally felt it was something between
Atoll and Real Turquoise and decided for turquoise, but it could also be
Atoll and if it's closer to what you envisioned, then the problem is
solved.

BTW we're planning to order around 40 red t-shirts for organizers and
volunteers, but if you have a better colour idea, it's welcome. I can
order any colour that is in the catalogue.

With 13 volunteers over 8 days with 5-10 local team members, you should expect to need 100-150 as a minimum, assuming you guess all the sizes correctly and  no one gets sweaty. I recommend that you aim for 200 and expect to have some left over. The leftovers can be given out on the last day to other people who helped out with the organisation and so on in some way or other as it's a nice thing to do.

For reference, at the Desktop Summit we had 400 volunteer t-shirts (granted we had more volunteers) and had to have a second run printed on the second day because we ran out.

Yes please, send it to me. The vendor will definitely need that.
