League Chair Guide

This article is for league chairs. Please feel free to add anything you think might be useful for other chairs to know, or that you may need to remember later!

League Chair Responsibilities

Make sure the league rules are actually posted for people to see.

Follow the league rules. Don't just do whatever you feel like doing because you think you're in charge.

Be reasonable in all situations and find good solutions to any issues.

If running a league is too stressful for you, don't do it.

If you run a league like a dictator, nobody will have fun or want you to run it, or anything else, ever again.
