The American Amputee Soccer Association (AASA), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, is inviting passionate, strategic leaders to join our Board of Directors.


Amputee soccer is growing rapidly across the nation. Our organization operates with a clear dual mission: introducing youth and adults with limb differences to the game through community grassroots clinics, while identifying, developing, and training elite national team athletes to represent the United States in international competition. Achieving both requires visionary governance, dedicated advocacy, and strong community partnerships.

As a member of our Board of Directors, you will help steer the long-term health, reach, and financial sustainability of the sport.


What We Are Looking For

We are seeking mission-driven individuals ready to serve as champions for adaptive sports. Ideal candidates bring:

  • Relevant Background: A minimum of 3 years of experience in amputee soccer or disabled/adaptive sports.

  • Demonstrated Leadership: A proven record of guiding teams, projects, or organizations to measurable success.

  • Network & Advocacy: The willingness and ability to represent AASA to community partners, healthcare providers, corporate sponsors, media outlets, and government entities.

  • Specialized Expertise: Background in one or more priority growth areas, including:

    • Fund Development, Philanthropy, and Donor Stewardship

    • Strategic Planning and Risk Management

    • Nonprofit Finance and Fiscal Oversight

    • Brand Visibility, Public Relations, and Digital Communications

    • Board Governance and Organizational Development


Terms and Commitment

  • Term Length: Board members serve a three-year term.

  • Governance Agreement: Members participate in an annual evaluation and establish personal fundraising and operational goals in coordination with Board leadership.

  • Time Commitment: Approximately 6 to 10 hours per month. This includes attending monthly Board meetings (virtual or in-person), actively participating on at least one specialized committee, and joining project task forces as needed.

Help us build a stronger foundation for athletes with limb differences nationwide.
