REGISTRATION
How do I register if I am not a 2012 member of USATF?
Please download the Mail-In Registration Form on the registration page.
The online registration system is not accepting my USATF membership number.
You must be a current member in 2012. If you do not remember your 2012 number, you can use the member number lookup function at the USATF login page.
I have accessed the Pride Meet event signup page, but I can't get the system to accept my event entry.
For each event, the USATF system requires you to fill in the fields for your previous mark with the location and date, for seeding purposes. You can enter an estimate or NM (no mark) if you do not have a prior mark.
