The Bylaws stipulate that the membership will elect a minimum of six (6) Directors. At the AGM, attending members may also vote to increase the number of Directors beyond this amount.

Assuming the proposed number of directors (10) is approved by members, these directors will all be acclaimed.
We continue to seek interested volunteers to help out with other important volunteer roles. Examples include:

- Sponsorship Coordinator – finding and supporting major donors to fund existing and new programs, capital upgrades
- Equipment Coordinators (multiple divisions) – arrange equipment and support coaches with accessing gear during season
- Field Maintenance Coordinators (multiple divisions) – monitor field maintenance including equipment, communicate with executive for replacements / repairs
- Opening Day or Jamboree Coordinators – these are large, visible events with lots of fun activities for our members. If you have event planning experience and want to help out please let us know!
- Umpire Scheduler – scheduling of junior umpires to games (15U AA and below)
