ASA/USA Softball seeks applications for Commissioner with Dallas ASA

OKLAHOMA CITY -- The Amateur Softball Association (ASA), a volunteer driven, not-for-profit organization, and USA Softball is seeking applicants for the position of Commissioner for the Dallas ASA association.

The ASA/USA Softball Commissioner should be an individual who is interested in serving as the principal liaison between the local association and the ASA National Office. Those interested in the complete duties of an ASA/USA Softball Commissioner may review them on the ASA website at www.asasoftball.com under the About ASA section and ASA Procedural Manual Article 105.

A panel will interview and make their recommendation of an interim commissioner to the ASA/USA Board of Directors for confirmation.
