As a board member, you can help guide everything from how we interact with the front office, to organizing our work in the community, to inspiring new ways to get our merchandise into the hands of soccer fans. Board members participate in all board/FO meetings (currently the second Tuesday of each month). Additionally, they lead subcommittees including membership, game day operations, merch, partnerships, communications, etc. Board members also assist with special events and other tasks as they arise. They typically spend about 15 or so hours per week on their duties. This is a huge commitment of time and energy, not to be taken lightly.
