Complete the information requested below as best suits your coed team. Items marked with * are required fields.
After registration, you will be assigned a National Ranking Team ID#. You can view that number by clicking "My Team".
USARA recommends you include your National Ranking Team ID# in parenthesis next to your team name on race registratiion forms.
This will insure your team is awarded the appropriate points in the USARA National Ranking System.
Teams must register their permanent members. Permanent members consist of
the four core members and two alternate members. Teams may use an unlimited
number of guest racers throughout the year, however in order to receive points
towards the national rankings a team must have at least 1 member from the six
registered permanent members on the team in the competition. Guest racers may be
racers who are registered with a different team.
Teams may only compete in 1 event per week - weeks start on Friday and end
on the following Thursday. Exception: A team may compete in two events in the
same week if the team members are exactly the same at both events. (Example:
Team USA races in a 2 hour sprint event on Saturday and the exact same team
races in an 8 hour event on Sunday).
Two teams with the same name cannot race on the same day (Example Team USA
sends 3 core members to one event and the remaining core member and 2 alternates
attend a second event and race under the same name on the same day).
Only the premier coed division for an event will receive ranking points. If there are multiple coed divisions
(ex: 4 person coed and 2 person coed) for an event, only the 4 person coed division will receive points.
Events may not mix and match results between divisions.
Teams may only collect ranking points if a core team member of the team is the captain for that event. A team may
not collect ranking points using 1 core member and give the national qualification slot to a guest member from another
team. (Example: Team USA races in a regional qualifier event with 1 core member, Bob and 2 guest members - Fred & Sue.
Team USA wins and takes the ranking points for Team USA. Fred & Sue want the qualifying slot for their team). In
this example the team must decide who will get both the points and the qualifying slot, they cannot be divided
between 2 teams. Either Team USA gets both the ranking points and the qualifying slot or Fred & Sue's team gets the
qualification slot and the ranking points are forfeited. Ranking points will only be awarded to the team whose name
was used for the event. In the above example if Team USA accepted the points and qualification slot they would receive
both. If Fred & Sues's team accepted the qualification slot they would forfeit any ranking points. Forfeited ranking
points will not be awarded to any other teams in the competition.
