1. Only clubs may renew or apply for introductory athlete memberships online. Athletes or their parents may not register online without going through the club. There are no exceptions.
2. You will need to have completed introductory athlete forms for any athlete that you register online. In the event of an injury, USA Gymnastics or our insurance company may require you to produce an athlete form. It is of utmost importance that you keep the original athlete applications on file at your club, because this is tied to the secondary insurance coverage. If you choose to register an athlete online without the proper form on file, you are compromising the athlete's medical coverage as well as opening yourself and your business to unwanted liability exposure. YOU MUST KEEP THE ORIGINAL ATHLETE FORM ON FILE AT YOUR OFFICE. DO NOT SEND FORMS TO USA GYMNASTICS.
3. You must enter your club number as a six digit number, including a leading zero, if necessary.
4. You will need a credit card to apply for or renew membership online.
5. If you are registering an athlete who has had any type of past membership with USA Gymnastics but has not competed for one or more seasons, you will need to call Member Services before proceeding with registration. Do not attempt to create a new membership for an athlete until you have contacted Member Services.

   Note: Be sure to provide your proper email address, or you will not receive the confirmation.

8. The business day following the date of your transaction, USA Gymnastics will review your transaction to make sure there were no problems with either the credit card transaction or the membership information. Once USA Gymnastics verifies that everything is in order the introductory athletes are added to your club roster. The club roster is available for viewing at Club Roster List. The club roster will not be updated with the new athletes or renewals until the next business day when USA Gymnastics posts the records.
