Recreation Development Working Group
Sports and Leagues have gone hand in hand for decades and that relationship has evolved throughout that time. The 2021 Tripartite Agreement broadened the definition of recreation and this group has been established to advise the EFCL board to identify and develop new recreational opportunities for Community Leagues.
We are looking for three more members of Community League boards from a variety of Leagues across the City to help build relationships and create opportunities for increased recreation options for Leagues.
Membership Engagement Working Group
The EFCL Board has heard League concerns about growing membership and turning those members into committed volunteers. This group will lend their knowledge and experience to help enable the EFCL to support Leagues in increasing membership and engaging and mobilizing those members to volunteer for the League.
We are looking for up to two more Community League board members from a variety of Community Leagues across the City. We are looking for both experienced and board members new to the role.
Environmental Sustainability Working Group
Community Leagues are great platforms for climate action and sustainability initiatives. Using their knowledge and experience in this area, Environmental Sustainability Working Group members will help shape Green Leagues programs and projects to best serve Leagues in reducing their operating costs through energy efficiency, as well as appealing to volunteers in Edmonton’s communities that share these interests.
This working group will also advise the EFCL board on the coordination and representation of Community Leagues in relation to sustainability matters.
We are looking for 3 more Community League members who bring a variety of viewpoints.
Membership Fees Working Group
At the 2026 AGM, members passed a motion to increase the fees Community Leagues pay from a percentage of Leagues’ CLOG funding to a flat fee of $750 starting in 2026 and to establish a working group to discuss options for future fee increases. This group will study options for membership fees and make recommendations to the EFCL Board with the intent of putting something in front of members at the November 2026 Regular General Meeting.
We are looking for 5 Community Leave board members from a variety of Leagues.
