Apply for NASPA Membership

The number of memberships you asked for is: 1. If you have changed your mind, please .


To begin, we need to know if the membership is for a player who has a tournament rating. If you are not sure, please check our Rating List. If you do not understand the question, please contact the Membership Committee. Please do not guess.

Rated Player

Be very careful about how you spell the player’s name. If the player has a tournament rating, the name must match the name in the rating list. If the player has no tournament rating, the name must (at least for now) be different from any other name in the rating list.

We offer several different membership plans. Please read the table below carefully to find the one that best suits your needs.

Plan Cost Description
Regular 30 One year of membership in the association. You will be assigned the next available membership number in sequence.
Single-Event 19 One week of membership in the association. If you are a rated adult player who plays in only one tournament per year, this plan is for you. It takes effect as soon as we process your payment though, so please request it right before the event you plan on playing in.

Youth 15 One year of membership in the association. This offer is open only to members who are not yet eighteen years old as of the first day of their membership.
Vanity 50 One year of membership in the association. You may choose a higher unassigned number in the current membership number series.
