Conveners
Conveners and assistant conveners are needed to coordinate the operation of our House League divisions through the season. If you love to organize, this is a great volunteer position. You will act as a liaison between the club executive and the coaches to set schedules, ensure policies and procedures are followed, update standings and keep your division running smoothly! All it takes is a few hours a week. Send an e-mail to volunteers@redbirdslacrosse.com to get involved!

Referees

The Club is actively recruiting adults that would like to be referees. We have traditionally relied on Midget & Intermediate Rep players but we are looking to balance their energy and game smarts with your maturity. Please send an e-mail to info@redbirdslacrosse.com if you are interested.


If you like to be close to the action, then consider becoming a referee or timekeeper. This is a great way for adults and junior players to gain a better understanding of the game, help younger players, earn some pocket money and stay fit! What does it take to become a referee? The first requirement is a desire to be involved! The second requirement is to become certified through a series of courses. For more information, send an e-mail to info@redbirdslacrosse.com and have a look at the documents listed below.
