  • the process for switching clubs is pretty easy (just a 60 day wait period per 201.3.5 of rulebook).  So you have time to gather people to do relays, then decide which club to represent and then ensure that none of the members represent another club in competition for 60 days to complete the transfer.  You can still continue to compete in USMS meets during that 60 day period, but you would need to make sure that you are registered as "unattached" during that time.  Hope that helps.

  • That is good information!  My challenge is there is not an athlete roster so I can't see who has signed up so far.
