1. Structure of the NAF
The NAF committee
The steering committee of the NAF is described in the NAF Charter. It is made up of four elected positions: the President, the Tournament Director, the League Director, and the Treasurer, up for election every two years. Appointed positions include the Vice President and the Membership Director.
National, Regional and Online Coordinators
National and Regional Coordinators are representing the NAF at a local level and serve as an interface between NAF and tournament organizers and members. They take care of sign-ups, membership renewals, gift distribution and, depending on region, also enter tournament info and results. They also assist in coordinating tournament schedules and are often the first point of contact for questions and help. These tirelessly working minions are appointed in a well defined process that includes bribery, personal references, nepotism and the roll of a D40. Online coordinators (e.g. for Fumbbl and BB3) have a similar function.
Importantly, the coordinators are also providing regular feedback in the NAF Annual Review process.
Support functions
There are also several additional appointed support functions. Some are permanent, like media officer or tournament series coordinator, some are temporary, like coordinator of the annual NAF review, which is held together with National and Regional Coordinators.
Tournament approvers
A group of volunteers supports the Tournament Director with review and approval of the soon one thousand annual tournaments. At the moment, these all happen to be members with double functions as National and Regional Coordinators.
Ethics Committee
This very recently formed unit consists of appointed members that have volunteered to support the NAF by developing a new code of conduct, setting up new guidelines and addressing ethical issues.
World Cup Voting Committee
This temporary group of global representatives is put together once every four years to elect the winner of the World Cup bidding process.
Who is not part of the NAF administration?
If you have made it thus far down the list, you might wonder who is left. Well, there are multiple steering committees and organizing bodies of large regular tournaments such as the Eurobowl, the NAFC or the Amorical Cup and other Majors, that work closely with the NAF administration and often feature members that have also official NAF functions. However, these are independent bodies working largely outside the NAF administration. The NAF can not be made responsible if the Amorical Cup only provides Coors Light. Like your local league commissioner’s 8-person Kitchen Bowl, all of these tournaments will have to adhere to the NAF approval guidelines, though.

3. Ethics Committee
The Board of Ethics is a group of experienced coaches appointed by the NAF committee. The Board’s tasks include the following:
- establishing and updating a Code of Conduct
- encouraging and promoting a positive and respectful attitude in NAF spaces
- advising the NAF Committee in questions about social or ethical aspects of the game
- being open for suggestions from coaches
- assisting coaches who might not feel welcome or have issues attending NAF events
- advocating diversity and inclusion
If there is anything you would like to suggest or report, feel free to email: ethics@thenaf.net. Please note that Code of Conduct breaches are if possible handled with Tournament Organizers or Regional Representatives. The current Board of Ethics consists of Kubusta, Mentos, Sundevil, Thibault, Volkajo.
