TREASURER ROLE

The Team Treasurer helps keep the team's finances organized, transparent, and running smoothly throughout the season. Working closely with the Team Manager, the Treasurer manages team funds, maintains the budget and financial records, and keeps families informed through regular updates.


TREASURER GUIDE

The Team Treasurer Guide is here to help you navigate the financial side of the season with confidence. It walks you through the key steps and requirements throughout the season, from setting up your team's finances and budget to managing funds, reporting, and wrappingup the season end.


TREASURER POWERPOINT

The Team Treasurer presentation provides a helpful overview of the key financial responsibilities and requirements throughout the hockey season. It touches on the main topics covered in the Team Treasurer Guide, including banking, budgeting, managing team funds, reporting, and year-end requirements.

Use the presentation / PowerPoint as a helpful companion to the guide and a quick reference as you navigate the season.


CASH CALL POLICY

The Cash Call Policy provides guidance for teams and families regarding team cash calls, including payment timelines, financial hardship arrangements, and how unused funds are handle at the end of the season.

Please review the policy to understand the exceptions and options available to families when contributing to the team budget.


BUDGET TEMPLATE

The Team Budget Template is provided to help teams plan, track and manage their finances throughout the season. It helps Treasurers clearly separate publicly raised (AGLC) funds from non-publicly raised funds, while providing an easy way to monitor income, expenses, and the team's overall financial position.

Using the template throughout the season will help keep your team's financial records organized and ensure funds are being used and reported appropriately.

YEAR END FINANCIAL REPORT

The Year-End Financial Reporting Letter outlines the steps to wrap up your team's finances at the end of the season. It covers the Actual to Budget Report, remaining funds, bank account closure, and important requirements for teams that participated in gaming or raffle fundraising.

Please review the letter to ensure all required reporting and documentation is completed before the May 1st deadline.
