USA Triathlon is governed by a Board of Directors, which has general charge of the organization's business affairs, activities and policies. Four of the Board's members shall be Athlete Directors, four General Directors and four Independent Directors.
USA Triathlon is committed to transparency in its governance matters, business affairs and organizational activities. Additionally, USA Triathlon and the Board of Directors are dedicated to fostering an environment that encourages feedback and commentary from the multisport community and in particular, its annual members [which are the foundation of USA Triathlon]. Engaged membership is vital in continuing to move the organization, community, and sport forward. Following USA Triathlon’s Board of Director’s recent board meeting, we have proposed changes to various Sections of our Bylaws.
You may review these changes below during the next 30 days:
