Coordinator Overview and Responsibilities

Coordinators are an integral part of LSC, encompassing either Express specifically (Division Coordinators) or the club as a whole. Responsibilities of coordinator positions are outlined in their respective job descriptions (ie: Division Coordinator, Social Media Coordinator, etc.) below along with the LSC Coordinator application.
Coordinators who carry out their job requirements successfully throughout the season (including pre- and post- season as indicated in the job description) will be reimbursed the fee amount(s) paid for the season for their child(ren) on Rec Express teams according to the tenure matrix below:
First season as a Coordinator = 1 child
Second season as a Coordinator = 2 children
Third season as a Coordinator = 3 children
Fourth season as a Coordinator = 4 children
Every additional season adds an additional qualifying child if applicable. 
Coordinators will not receive any compensation beyond reimbursement for the number of qualifying children registered for the program each season regardless of length of service.

LSC Express Coaches run a team from nuts to bolts. This position includes sending e-mails to your team to communicate important dates and times, setting up and running practices (U7/U8 and above), coaching during games, and encouraging good sportsmanship and development in your players. LSC will aim to pair two coaches per team as Co-Coaches so the responsibilities can be shared, although both Co-Coaches should aim to be present at all practices and games. On Saturdays, Coaches who have the first games will set-up the field (move on nets, sandbags, flags) and those with the last games will clear off the field.
Upon completion of the season, all Coaches who have not missed more than 3 practices and/or games in total will be reimbursed the full amount paid for the season for their child on the team.
