• Read and refer to the Bylaws and other organizational documents. Make decisions on behalf of the WFDF mission.
• Have regular access to e-mail and the internet. Read e-mail at least once a week. Expected weekly e-mail volume is approximately 1-3 hours and could vary depending on time of year. E-mail & votes/polls response 1 week (7 days).

• Inform the Working (Executive) Committee (ExCom) of planned absences including holidays/vacations as soon as known.
• Be available for scheduled conference calls (about 4 per year), which could be at unusual times due to Directors living in different time zones.
• Learn and follow WFDF policies. Work toward creation, update, and approval of policies for good governance where needed. Be prepared to follow a Conflict of Interest (COI) policy, which may require reasonable disclosures like financial dealings with other organizations.
• Not to engage in criminal behavior (organizational/corporate). Traffic tickets, for example, would not be a WFDF concern unless driving a WFDF vehicle, which we do not have.

• Resign if consistently unable or unwilling to meet minimum Board requirements.
• Finally, remember the reasons you first started to play flying disc sports. Keep these alive in your decision-making, among the board, and in your interactions with WFDF members and the world.
