access - Forms and Sub Forms

My OS is win 10 Prof 64 bit and I use Office 365's Access.
I am trying to create a simple volunteer dbase for my NGO but am having difficulty in linking the Sub Forms.
Basically, the db will hold Volunteers who volunteer for an Event, and the service available to volunteer are numerous.
Thus, the 3 tables that I have are : 1- tblEvents; 2-tbl Volunteers and 3-tblSewa (aka Service)
The sample file is attached.
So. a Volunteer, like Mr. A, could volunteer for an Event from the tblEvents, and select more than one Sewa opportunities.

I am trying to create a Main Form, with the Sub Forms embbeded, but having trouble linking them,  Hope the Experts could please take a peek  at the file and make the suggested corrections, as it has been ages since I did this.

Thank u and Regards

In response to John, thank u for your contribution.  In trying to understand how u tackled it, if u can find the time, hope u can pse give me some documentation.  thank u
Well the documentation ...is reading ...a lot of reading...the trickiest in this specific form is the "fake" master field that connects the VolunteersofTheEvents to the services that each one will provide..
In response to John, let me go thru more times and understand your design.  Meanwhile thank u
glad to help u
Thankj u for your very helpful sample file, it gives me an insight to the design. Regards.
