HOST
REGION
PLAYOFFS

Seasons end with one big playoff day where all the teams come together! It’s a great opportunity to invite your region’s athletes in and show off your incredible space & community.

REQUIREMENTS:

Though we’ll have lots of opportunities for you and your team to get involved (if you choose) basically all you have to do is ensure your space is available for ~8 hours of the designated playoff date, and our team will take care of the rest.

WHAT YOU GET:

If you have any particular toys, running routes, etc that you love - we’ll do our best to utilize those in the playoff workout programming! Our goal is to show off your space & everything it has to offer to the rest of the community, on top of that - you’re season teams will get a home court advantage!

On the day of the event, we’ll send a team out early to do the initial setup. During Playoff days we have a handful of paid ‘head’ positions that we like to offer to members of the host community - especially the ‘head of equipment’ position - since your team knows your space best!

WHY?

Though we cannot afford to pay every judge or volunteer at playoffs, we do pay our ‘heads’ of each area in order to cover the costs of the additional time (outside of the playoff day) required to ensure proper execution & management of their position. This is just one of the many steps we take in order to help legitimize the sport - as a real sport can’t rely solely on volunteers to manage their competitions!

WHO?

The Regional Director for your region will always take priority in selecting which position they choose to occupy, and any of our attending staff will take up the others - but we’re always looking for more people who are interested in being involved in the spaces that don’t get filled.

FFL FACILITATORS

FFL Facilitators are kind of like group class ‘coaches’ of the season matches. For that reason - being an existing group class coach is preferred, but the position requires a minimum of 2+ years of experience in Functional Fitness.

PLAYOFF POSITIONS

All of our volunteers for the day receive FFL swag, as well as food / some type of meal from the season partner (if it’s a full day event), the head of each position receives this, as well as payment for the hours that may need to be put in prior to the day.

• MC / LEAD COORDINATOR

  • This position is typically occupied by the Regional Director. They will be ‘on the mic’ and oversee and ensure smooth operation and flow of the day, working directly with the FFL Commissioner.

• HEAD JUDGE & VOLUNTEER LEAD

  • This person is there to ensure all the judges are up to speed on the events, understand movement standards, and are consistent in how they judge. Typically the head judge will wander the floor during events and do most of the ‘no rep’ calling - so that our volunteers don’t have to!

• HEAD SCORE KEEPER

  • They’ll be at the computer inputting scores all day, answering general questions, and assisting during events if / when needed or not inputting scores.

• HEAD OF EQUIPMENT / FLOOR

  • This person is in charge of making sure the right equipment is setup appropriately on the floor for each event. Our team will generate floor plans specific to each event, and they will be in charge of making sure the other volunteers understand what needs to be where, and when.
