Hallitus • Board
The board steers and develops the club, supported by other volunteers (such as coaches and team managers) and club members. The board is among other things responsible for decision-making, budgeting and general safety. Each board member is usually given a certain role, where they are responsible for certain tasks and initiatives. These tasks can also be delegated or shared with other volunteers, and many areas of responsibilities are naturally interconnected. Monthly board meetings ensure effective communication and coordination between board members. You can find the different board positions and 2023 board members below.
