Note from presenter Chris Quetant: In order to gain access as an event organizer on the USATF Connect platform and submit a sanction request you only need to create an account and complete SafeSport training (both come at no cost). However, we do always encourage all event organizers and volunteers to become 3-step SafeSport compliant (USATF member, SafeSport training, & background screening). This is especially encouraged if you have direct engagement with athletes.
