On behalf of the 69ers Administrators, we would like to thank you for your interest in becoming a TD. Although being a TD isn't for everyone, it is a fun way to interact with 69ers Members. It is a TD's job to run and host tournaments for our League. We host all our Tournaments in Club Pogo Members Rooms. We want our TD's to be positive, fair, outgoing and most of all Fun.
