Call for Applications 2025
The SDRCC is seeking Canadian-based ADR service providers to act as resolution facilitators, mediators, med/arb neutrals, and arbitrators, for resolving or assisting parties in resolving sportsrelated disputes, for a mandate of approximately four years beginning in the spring of 2025.
Candidates should be aware that SDRCC proceedings are often urgent in nature, with little or no advance notice, and are generally conducted in very short timeframes requiring decisions within 5 to 7 days or less. Because the majority of SDRCC proceedings are conducted by telephone and videoconferencing, only candidates who are autonomous in the use of related technological tools will be considered. The
ADR service providers will be remunerated for their services in accordance with the policies of the SDRCC. The fee will be $350 per hour for a maximum of eight (8) hours per day, with restrictions and caps for certain tasks.
Applications must be received by the SDRCC no later than 4 pm (ET) on November 29, 2024 and include all the documents required. Incomplete applications will not be considered. It is the candidate’s responsibility to ensure that the application is received.
