Verifying against the live site and live WHOIS/DNS…
Common questions
Is usatriathlon.org legit or a scam?
AboutUs doesn't label sites "legit" or "a scam": this page lists the dated registration, DNS, HTTPS, mail-authentication and safety checks we could verify, each with its source, so you can decide for yourself.
Who owns usatriathlon.org?
Nobody has completed AboutUs's owner verification for usatriathlon.org. That's true of most sites here — it isn't itself a warning sign.

Our country is divided up into 10 different regional federations. Regional federations are very important to the world of triathlon because they can provide many benefits to the athletes. The primary objective of a regional federation is to assist in the development and growth of triathlon and duathlon within the designated states of the region.
