The Team Manager and the coach are the first point of contact for the inquiries related to teams and programs with NMSC. They can escalate inquiries to either technical or administrative staff of the Club if required. It is responsibility of the Team Manager to coordinate the schedule and communicate the information of the Team from the Club to players and coaches.
The Club and Team Managers will have meetings to gather feedback on the past season and revise the upcoming season, alongside associated responsibilities and major tasks. Team Manager meetings are conducted annually prior to the kick-off of the outdoor season and are organized by the Club’s operational staff. The meetings are conducted in-person at the clubhouse at the end March.
