At-Large

The At-Large position is best classified as a member of the board whose responsibilities are shaped as soon as they join. They do not fit into the responsibilities as the above but bring their unique strengths, passions, and drives to best suit the growing needs of the board. This could include bringing concerns and asks from the community to the board, taking on organization of leagues/events/tournaments, helping drive missions and visions of the board, and much more.
