Tournament Processing Fee (Formerly Rating Fee)

The Board of Directors recently considered a possible increase in membership fees within USATT membership categories.  Membership fees have essentially not increased since 2004.  The Board rejected the concept of increasing membership fees in 2009.  However, due to increased operating costs within USATT, a modest increase in tournament processing fees was approved.  The increase will be effective on April 1st and it will amount to an increase in $2.  The rating fees for 0, 1, 2, 3 & 4 star events will go from $5 to $7.  The rating fee for North American Teams will go from $7 to $9.  We trust that you will understand the significant efforts of the Board to maintain service to members and clubs within USATT in these times of increasing operating expenses.
