CLUB MEMBERSHIP FOR ALL TEAMS To help cut your cost of paying a $30 or $60 Club cost the following Club Number can be used. It must be understood that if this number is used rather than getting your own then you will be nullifying your vote at any Baseball or District Meetings. You will still be able to participate in any Event, Eligible to receive Sanction for practice insurance, Eligible to use the AAU logo & Name in AAU Sanctioned Events.
I have received numerous calls and emails regarding the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) Fees and I would like to explain the best way I can for people interested in joining AAU what the fees are. Club Fees: $30, $60, $300, Club Fees are from September 1st, 2008 - August 31st, 2009. Individual Membership Fee: $12 Membership Fees are from September 1st, 2008 - August 31st, 2009. These fees are paid only one (1) time for the year and not for every tournament as some seem to think. A membership card for Athletes and Coaches cover each person for the year in all Sanction activity and practice times for Liability and Medical Insurance. A team will pay the AAU a Club Fee and Membership fee only once and that usually will average as per following of $12 a player on a team with 2 coaches. $12 X 12 Athletes = $144 plus $14 X 2 Coaches = $28, a Club Fee
of $30 = $202. If you add Athletes or coaches to your
team they also must become members. After becoming members the only fee that a team will pay is the Tournament Entry Fee & nothing from tournament Entry Fees will go to any AAU person, District or National Office. You will pay the Entry Fee to the tournament Director and furnish him your Roster. That's it for each tournament --- The Roster and Entry Fee ---- Nothing Else. Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) has the best Insurance Coverage of any Youth Organization in the Country and we are very proud to make this claim. Nothing that the AAU does is under cover, it's in plain view. The membership card is really an INSURANCE CARD that covers as stated above Liability and Medical. Don't be fooled by others claims. Club Membership Level 1
Club Membership Level 2
Club Membership Level 3
Any Club wishing to host an AAU sanctioned event, other than practice, will need to join Club Level 2. Any Club wishing to join Club Level 3, which allows the Club to become a 501(C) 3 recognized subordinate of the AAU and receive tax-exempt donations, must join online. There will be no refunds if the Club has already joined. The AAU now offers Club Directors and Officers Insurance coverage for
clubs that join as members. This provides one million dollars of liability
protection for wrongful acts, such as violation of state and federal laws,
IRS violations, and failure to properly manage club financial affairs .
The cost is $399 per year. Please click
