identification and booking of contractors, coaches, and vendors where needed to deliver
events and clinics; administrative oversight of coaches, volunteers, and officials, and
design and implementation of communications and publicity plans.

Compensation and Time

$20,000 per year (12 months) for the provision of the services identified, with payments issued monthly.

Given snowboarding is a winter sport, the contract will have higher activity in the fall and winter, with much less to do in the spring and summer. Generally, the work can be completed in a few
hours a week. However, there are periods of intense activity associated with coordinating clinics and events that will require more time. This is balanced with periods when there is very little activity at all.

We are looking for a two-year commitment to the role, commencing on October 1, 2026 and terminating on September 30, 2028.
