    Other Information

    Membership is by calendar year (Jan 1 – Dec 31), regardless of when you join. This allows everyone to compete in the same period (i.e., calendar year) for Tour points and participation awards. Make sure you are selecting the correct calendar year you wish to join.

    Tour points and participation are calculated for the entire calendar year regardless of when you join. Example: If you join the 2023 CRC Membership in February, or June, or anytime on or before 12/31/23, you’ll receive all your eligible points & participation credit for all the Tour races since Jan 1, 2023. – Yes, we have your data!
