The Kansas City Roller Warriors (KCRW) is seeking interested individuals for open seats on our

Board of Directors. KCRW is a flat-track roller derby league that was founded in 2004 and is

one of the founding members of the Women’s Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA). We are

a 501(c)(3) nonprofit sports organization that is committed to developing its players, coaches,

referees, and volunteers to excel at the sport of roller derby while inspiring them to be leaders

who provide safe, empowering, inclusive opportunities for our community. More information on

Board members are responsible for attending regularly scheduled meetings, providing

organizational governance and support for our league leadership, participating on board

committees, staying informed on organizational activities, and working in good faith with board

members and league members to achieve our goals. Our board needs a variety of skills and

experience, with a particular emphasis in the areas of legal, financial, real estate, and

interpersonal expertise.

Collectively, the board embraces a culture of inquiry, values transparency, accountability, and

safety, and recognizes the importance of owning mistakes and celebrating hard work. These

values are the foundation for our interactions with board members, league members,

volunteers, and the communities we seek to serve. Additionally, board members must have a

demonstrated commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, with preferred experience in

fostering cultural change to support an organization that seeks to be anti-racist, trans-inclusive,

and encouraging of the interpersonal growth of our board, league members, and volunteers.
