Volunteer

The Division Manager is in charge of organizing a division and ensuring that teams get created, coaches and managers get assigned to teams, and that players are evaluated and placed on the appropriate team.  This position is fantastic if you like a challenge, enjoy multi-tasking, and if you enjoy meeting new people and working with fellow volunteers.  The bulk of the work is at the beginning of the season – August 15 until about September 30 – at which time the team managers take over most of the duties and your role switches to one of support and the odd administrative task.

• Initiation Minor Division Manager (U7-H2)
• U11 - Atom Rep & C Division Managers
• U15 Bantam Rep  & C Division Managers
• U18 Midget Rep & C Division Managers
