Team Elections Thursday -- Match Secretary

Here's the role of Match Secretary:

The Match Secretary is the officer charged with the task of organizing the club’s game schedule for the Fall and Spring seasons. This individual must see that the schedule is published in advance of the season, and is responsible for coordinating with the opposing team's match secretaries, the Union's Executive Vice President, and the PNRFU/WYR liaison. This individual will be responsible for ensuring that visiting teams have directions to our home pitch. The Match Secretary will assist the Team Manager in arranging transportation to away matches. The Match Secretary is responsible for scheduling the athletic fields for home games. The Match Secretary is responsible for coordinating EMTs to be available for home games, and for arranging referees. The Match Secretary is responsible for keeping the MedKit stocked at all times. The Match Secretary works with and reports to the Team Manager. When necessary, and possible, the Match Secretary is responsible for coordinating changing facilities and/or lodging for visiting teams.

Since the Renegade's schedule is already set and we already have our fields reserved, the Match Secretary won't have to worry about those things this season. The most important thing for this individual to do will be to organize refs for our home matches, and coordinate with our opposing teams to ensure we have proper game times and locations.

We have players with experience doing these things already, but I highly encourage someone new to take up this role. You will get a lot of support and guidance from the team leadership, and this will expose you to the operations of KRFU and PNRFU in such a way that you'll be learning the things you need to eventually take on real leadership roles within the team and/or the Union.
