Cross Country Alaska Coaching Application

For positions on Coaching Staffs at Junior National Championships, Arctic Winter Games or Other CCAK-organized trips

READ THIS FIRST BEFORE FILLING OUT THE APPLICATION!

The Cross Country Alaska Competition Committee has devised this application form in an effort to standardize the application process for coaching positions on CCAKorganized teams to the Junior Olympics, Arctic Winter Games and other trips organized under the auspices of CCAK. When the pertinent information is in the same format on everyone’s application, it is much easier for the Coach Selection Committee to evaluate each application and to compare merits between one applicant and another.

Please fill out the application completely, and save a copy on your computer. That way, in future year(s), you can re-open the same file and just add a row for the year(s) since you last submitted an application. Enter as much information in any of the boxes in the tables below, and the boxes will expand to accept what you type. PLEASE DO NOT re-format the form in any way.

Applications may ONLY BE SUBMITTED ELECTRONICALLY, as either a PDF file or as an MS Word (*.doc) file. Please submit a cover letter, or cover e-mail with your application, stating why you are applying for the position. Thanks for your assistance.
