What Skill or Experience is Needed for a PacNW Board Position? 

There are no eligibility requirements, and the single most important skill needed for a board position is a strong desire to support all of our players.  While the club has hired additional professional staff in recent years, the PacNW Executive Board is still considered a “working board” – members are asked to “roll up their sleeves” to help with the operations of the club in their respective roles.  Historically, Board Members have come from a wide variety of professional backgrounds and personal experiences.  PacNW Members who have finance, accounting, legal, or non-profit board experience are especially encouraged to apply and all are invited and welcome to run for a position on the Club’s Executive Board. Any specific questions about positions on the PacNW Executive Board may be sent to .
