Navigate to Memberships (The menu says Profile, then Roles, then Memberships, then Background Screening, etc.): Select the Memberships tab.
Initiate Transfer: Click the three dots on the far right (Actions). Then choose the Transfers option from the drop-down menu, and then click the blue "Start Transfer" button.
Select Club: Search for and select our specific club (Olympic Peninsula Striders, WA-36-11286), confirm it is not a temporary move, and submit the request.
Association Transfer (if applicable): If our OPS club is in a different region than where the athlete lives, they may also be required to submit an Association Transfer or Youth Rule 300 Waiver.
