Crossfire Select Coaching Opportunities for 2010-2011 Season
LWYSA's Crossfire Select is seeking qualified coaches for the 2010/2011 season. Our immediate need will be to fill four coaching positions for the new U11 teams, where two boys and two girls teams will be formed. Prospective coaches who desire to coach older age teams are also encouraged to apply. A National D License and/or previous coaching experience is desirable. Interviews will be held in February 2010. This is a non-paid volunteer position.
On December 28, 2009, the LWYSA Board of Directors (BOD) voted unanimously to grant Crossfire Select club status within the association. The new Crossfire Select Club joins the other existing six clubs in the association: Eastlake, Kirkland, Juanita, Redmond, Union Hill and Crossfire Premier. Up to now, Crossfire Select was a program within the association overseen by a board appointed director. With the growth of the Select program over the past 7 years (32 teams and over 420 players in 2009), the select leadership determined that making the select program a club within the association would provide more flexibility in governance and more importantly representation on the BOD with voting rights at the Annual General Meeting. The Crossfire Select Club will continue to adhere to the basic guidelines that have made it popular in our association offering a 6 month soccer experience to players who want more competition than recreational soccer and less of a commitment than the year round premier soccer.
