Region 16 Junior Olympic XC Championships – Important Birth Certificate Validation Information

If you plan to compete in the USATF  Region 16 Junior Olympic cross country championships on November 29 in  Reno, Nevada, please ensure that your youth athlete’s birthdate has been  validated within the USATF national membership database.  How do you validate this?  Click on either of the links below then follow the steps:

• Club:  https://www.pausatf.org/indexclubsa.php    
• Unattached:  https://www.pausatf.org/data/members.php?age=youth

Once you have the roster  open

• Locate the athlete
• Scroll down the column titled,  "Age."  If the age number is underlined that means the birthdate has been validated.
• If the number is not underlined and therefore not validated, send a copy of the proof of birth date to:
  Pacific Association c/o Heike  Mansoor
  120 Ponderosa Court
  Folsom, CA   95630

• Or you can fax it to the PA office at 916-983-4624
• On the proof of birth write either "club name" or "unattached" and include the youth’s 2009 10-digit  USATF membership number

Take care of this right away!  The  deadline for online registration is midnight, November 22 so you need to  allow time for the proof of birth dates (i.e., copy of birth certificates)  to arrive and be validated at the PA/USATF office
