Other Information

We hold all of our managers and players to a high standard. We believe that the best and most successful managers display certain characteristics, and we expect them to continuously self-improve on these characteristics during their time with our team.

Proactive and Preemptive - Managers are expected to go above and beyond in their daily duties and responsibilities, and should easily welcome the challenges that arise during practices and meets. The best managers can anticipate team and coaching needs without having to be told or reminded, and are innovative with efficiency and processes that help our team better operate.

Self-Motivation and Positivity - We believe in cultivating a positive culture where all members of our team can easily handle adversity. Managers excel when they find areas of interest and allow their strengths to overcome challenges.

Reliability and Dependability - Managers play a crucial role when it comes to team operations and success, so we rely on our managers to be self-aware and responsible with their time management, academic and practice schedule, equipment responsibilities, and team duties.

Professionalism and High Moral Standards - As a student manager, you are a highly visible member of our team and CSU Athletics. Managers should present themselves in a professional manner at all times, and be able to make moral and ethical decisions in their classes, at practice or meets, and in their personal lives.
