Membership/Permit Requirements

Written by usatriathlon.org Tuesday, 26 January 2010 20:32

This is the first segment on the rules covering membership.

One must be a member of USA Triathlon in order to compete in any of our sanctioned events. We encourage all athletes to become annual members but do offer a one-day license for those who just want to give the sport a try!

The requirement of membership is so important that participation without membership could result in the harshest of penalties - suspension from participation for up to a year.

Check your membership status here.

2.1 Membership/Permit Requirements.

/>All participants in events sanctioned by USA Triathlon must be members of USA Triathlon and be able to present a valid annual membership card or must purchase a USA Triathlon single event permit. Any athlete who intentionally participates in an event despite lack of membership or ineligibility for the relevant membership class shall be suspended or barred from membership in USA Triathlon and barred from participation in any sanctioned event for a period of up to one year.

Want to learn more about a specific rule?
Let us know at communications@usatriathlon.org. Put "Rules suggestion" in the subject line. We can feature it in the upcoming weeks.
