Mapbrook Board of Directors Self-Nomination Application

MapleBrook Soccer Association (MPB) is seeking volunteers to serve on its Board of Directors. Participation is mainly a commitment of time as the organization is primarily in need of the professional and practical expertise provided by those serving on the Board. This opportunity is best suited for individuals with a keen interest in advancing the development of youth through sports.

Prospective members to the Board are self-nominated using a form which provides a means for the nominee to present what skill sets they offer and other pertinent information. A committee of the current board will interview prospective candidates and make a recommendation to the membership at the AGM or special member’s meeting for approval.

Board of Directors
This active Board’s responsibilities include the achievement of the Association’s goals through officers, employees and an administrative structure; the solicitation, development and investment of funds to assist the Association in achieving such goals; the formulation of any desirable amendments to the Articles of Incorporation or By-Laws of the Association; and attendance at meetings of the Board of Directors and committees. We currently adhere to a modified version of what is known as Carver Policy Governance. For more info here is a link to an article about Policy Governance.

To be clear, while participation on the board does counts as a fulfillment of volunteer hours requirements, participation on the board does not automatically gain access to discounted or scholarshiped fees. Any discounts or scholarships must go through our staff and/or the Board of Directors through our scholarship committee.
