ABGA members with an email address on file should receive an email invite to renew with ABGA for the 2023 year using iCompete.
If you are an ABGA member and did not receive an email invite to renew via iCompete, please contact the ABGA office.
JABGA memberships cannot be renewed until the associated adult membership is renewed. Adult memberships must renew FIRST through iCompete in order to renew JABGA memberships. If you are an adult member and you are missing an associated JABGA membership in iCompete, contact the ABGA office immediately.
