The ESSC depends on a large group of volunteers called Event Coordinators (ECs) to help facilitate games in the following sports: 5-Pin Bowling, Badminton, Cornhole, Curling, Lawn Bowling, Pickleball, Virtual Golf, Volleyball, Flag Football, Flag Rugby, Ultimate, Tennis, and Multi-Sport 2's. These ECs play a huge role in ensuring that all players have the best experience possible each and every night.

EC Roles

ECs are players in the league who are already registered on a team for that specific season. Each League needs multiple ECs depending on the number of teams registered and facilities being used that season. Each EC is responsible for managing the facility that their team is scheduled to play at and the teams that they are scheduled to play against.

The primary roles of the EC are:

  • Arrive at the facility 15 minutes prior to the game start time.
  • Bring the equipment and permits to the facility (as supplied by the ESSC).
  • Facilitate the set-up and take-down of the nets with help from the players (Badminton and Volleyball).
  • Facilitate field set-up and take-down with help from the players (Ultimate, Flag Rugby and Flag Football).
  • Act as the onsite contact for the custodian and/or facility staff.
  • Update players with pre-game announcements.
  • Ensure that the matches run on time.
  • Ensure that the players have left the facility on time.
  • Confirm that all equipment is put away properly at the end of the booking (Badminton and Volleyball).
  • Report scores online the following day.
