In an effort to increase our club commitment to the PA/USATF road and cross country series, we have instituted a new team bonus incentive open to all AsicsAggies members in good standing who race for and score on a winning open team at any PA/USATF championship road race or cross country event. You can be an open member, masters, seniors, you may be someone who isn’t usually on the team that goes to Nationals and may not consider yourself to be outstanding – it doesn’t matter. If you are on the scoring top 5 (top 3 in the 30k and marathon) of a winning open team, you earn free STUFF!
If you are member in good standing and you score on a winning team, you will earn one-half of a pair of shoes, if you complete 2 PA races scoring on a winning team you earn a pair of shoes (i.e. left and right shoe) from the list below. At the end of the 6 month season (Jan-June & Jul-Dec) Scores will be tallied and orders will be placed together. That’s right, for every winning open team you are a member of on the PAUSATF road or cross country series, you will earn 1/2 of an ASICS shoe From the Below list:
2150
1150,
Cumulus,
Landreath,
Foundation,
Speedstar,
Pulse,
DS Racer,
Hyperspeed,
Dirt Dog/Dirt Diva
Japan Thunder 3
Ghost
Details:
If you are a member of the Asics Aggies in good standing and a scoring member of the winning open men’s or women’s at any of the road or cross country meets listed on the official schedule, you will be eligible for an Asics shoe (right or left) for each winning team you score on.
To be eligible for the bonus you must first be a member in good standing with the Asics Aggies. This requires 4 things on your end:
- You must have your club dues paid for the current year.
- You must have a current PA/USATF card and be registered as an Asics Aggie (club #111)
- You must race in the official club issued Asics Aggies Uniform.
- You must race head to toe in Asics products.
If you fail to complete any of the above requirements you will forfeit your bonus for that race. There are no exceptions to this rule.
To pay your club dues, go to the Membership page.
To pay your PA/USATF dues, visit their website: http://www.pausatf.org/
Additionally it should go without saying that the team must officially be declared as the open men’s or women’s team champion for the event, this requires that all scoring members have a current PA/USATF card, be registered as a member of the winning club and last but not least, the team submits their team declaration by Wednesday at the latest following the race.
Finally, Asics individual bonus money is available to any Asics Aggies who officially wins or is runner up at any of the races listed on the road series (only if ASICS bonus cap has not already been reached):
PA/USATF Road Championships. Individual overall placing
1st-$500.00 2nd-$200.00
