It is not required for USA Triathlon Official Clubs to sanction their club events with USA Triathlon. However, Official Clubs' events, even if only club members compete, will have limited insurance coverage (the same risk as non-club sponsored events) unless the event is also sanctioned with USA Triathlon. By sanctioning your event, the event will be covered under the sanctioned event insurance policy.
If you have any questions about the sanctioning process, please email our Event Services Team at EventServices@usatriathlon.orgor call (719) 884-5612.
Sanction Your Events
Note: there is no such thing as a "sanctioned" club, only events are sanctioned by USA Triathlon. All clubs that are registered with USA Triathlon may use the term "official."
