The winter league coordinator is responsible for overall direction, management and coordination of the winter league season for the night of league play. Typically we’ve had programs run on Monday and Thursday evenings, but do to recent events we have only been running one night, Thursday. Typically the winter league is broken up into two 12 weeks sessions, starting the end of October and running through to mid-April, breaking for two weeks over Christmas and New Year’s. During the season, the League Coordinator should be accessible via email throughout the week and accessible via text or phone on the night they coordinate.
