Steps
Identify the sport's national governing body (e.g., USA Hockey, USA Swimming, USA Volleyball) and confirm whether it operates its own membership/registration system
Determine whether the NGB's system is the system of record or whether a third-party platform sits in front of it under a partner arrangement
Establish a consistent player/member ID mapping between the NGB record and your club roster so a member is never double-counted or mismatched across seasons
Confirm renewal cadence, since most NGB memberships are annual, and build a reminder/lapse workflow around it
Where the NGB provides an eligibility/compliance export (insurance status, background-check status, certifications), reconcile it against your roster before each season
Known gotchas
Most NGB membership systems are not general-purpose public APIs - access typically flows through the NGB's designated platform partner rather than direct developer sign-up
ID formats and renewal cycles differ by NGB, so a single cross-sport integration approach is unrealistic - plan per sport
Treating the NGB feed as a one-time sync instead of a recurring reconciliation is a common source of stale eligibility data
