Board of Directors
Striving to achieve the vision of the organization, viaSport’s Board of Directors provides strategic leadership and governance of the organization.
Demonstrating leadership and acting as a model for other amateur sport organizations, the Board supports the development of the strategic plan, reviews and monitors operational policies, procedures, and plans, and adheres to the provisions of viaSort’s bylaws and constitution.
The Board is diverse and representative of different backgrounds, regions, and professions. It has two Committees to ensure good governance and provide counsel and advice to the Board.
The Finance & Audit Committee supports the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities in relation to financial reporting, audit function, internal controls, and financial risk management. The Governance Committee supports the Board in achieving its full potential through effective governance; the development, performance, and operation of the Board, its committees and working groups, individual Board members, and the CEO; oversight of viaSport standards, policies, and procedures; and risk management.
Each year, annual finance statements are approved by the Board. In addition, an annual Community Report is published to share the outcomes and successes for the prior fiscal year in alignment with the organization’s strategic plan.
