How To Join UCLA Triathlon

Our base training for the 2009 racing began October 1st! If you want to check out the team, you can try out our practices for one week without signing up. However, you must first submit a waiver to club sports either via their website (instructions below) or in person at the John Wooden Center. You are also welcome to join our Google group for your trial period. Workout times and locations are on our calendar. Email your questions to triteam@ucla.edu or speak to a team officer before or after a workout. Once you have decided to join, follow the instructions below to pay your dues.

 
 
Forms and Dues

Membership in the UCLA Triathlon Team is yearly, following the academic quarter system, Fall through Summer. All memberships expire at the end of the summer quarter. Email triteam@ucla.edu for information regarding membership. Starting this season, dues will be paid online.

  1. Both new and returning members must fill out this form to join the team.
  2. Sign in to the UCLA Recreation site here. Your default username and password are both your UCLA student ID number. If you cannot access your account, you must email techsupport@recreation.ucla.edu to have it reset. Include your name and student ID number in the email.
  3. After logging in, navigate to: Browse Courses > F2009 > Club Sports > Club Triathlon. Everyone must register for Club Triathlon - (1), which is a $15 club sports waiver fee before attending any workouts. This fee pays for new programs that the UCLA Recreation department runs each year. After the one-week trial period, you must also register for either Club Triathlon (2) or (3). Club Triathlon - (2) is for students ($210); Club Triathlon - (3) is for everyone else ($270).
  4. Alternatively, you may pay your dues via check made out to "UC REGENTS," or cash in a sealed envelope, given to membership director Hai Phan at a team workout. The $15 waiver can be processed at the Sales and Cashiering Office located in the John Wooden Center (JWC) (SE corner, 1st floor).
  5. After paying the club sports waiver fee and your team dues, go to the Competitive Sports Clubhouse (JWC, NW corner, 2nd floor) to pick up your free UCLA-gift. If you paid the club sports waiver fee at sales and casheering, you must bring your receipt. For online payments, your student ID number is sufficient.

This includes participation in official team and coached workouts, ability to purchase and race in official UCLA Tri gear, eligibility to participate in collegiate race divisions and receive collegiate race discounts, team compensated travel and lodging for particular races, and full sponsorship and Recreation Department benefits. $210
