Lead Level Roles

Area Leads: There will be a lead for each quadrant of the region that specializes in one of the areas listed above. For example, SoCal will have a PPTQ lead, Advancement lead, Events lead and Communications lead. These leads will report directly to the Specialty coordinator and Area Coordinator for their area.

This application is for Area Lead Level Roles only.

The Application Process

The Lead applications will be conducted as follows:

Each applicant wll be presented with a series of questions based on the role(s) they are applying for. The associated Coordinators will then deliberate over each applicant's answers and select one applicant for the role. For example, if a judge is applying for Arizona PPTQ Lead, that decision will be made by the Arizona Coordinator and the PPTQ Coordinator.

Please apply through Judge Apps AND fill out the google form.
