See a comment under A187357 concerning trisection.
This appears also in the trisection of A001700: binomial(2*(3*n+1)+1,(3*n+1)+1)/3.

FORMULA
a(n)=binomial(2*(3*n+2),3*n+2)/3!, n>=0.
a(n)=binomial(3*(2*n+1),3*n+2)/3, n>=0.
O.g.f.:(cb(x^(1/3)) - sqrt(2)*P(x^(1/3))*sqrt(1/P(x^(1/3))-(1-4*x^(1/3))/2))/(18*x^(2/3)),
with cb(x):=1/sqrt(1-4*x) (o.g.f. of A000984) and P(x):=P(-1/2,4*x)=1/sqrt(1+4*x+16*x^2) (o.g.f. of A116091, with P(x,z)the o.g.f. of the Legendre polynomials).
From Peter Bala, Mar 19 2023: (Start)
a(n) = (1/6)*Sum_{k = 0..3*n+2} binomial(3*n+2,k)^2.
a(n) = (1/6)*hypergeom([-2 - 3*n, -2 - 3*n], [1], 1).
a(n) = 8*(2*n + 1)*(6*n + 1)*(6*n - 1)/(n*(3*n + 1)*(3*n + 2)) * a(n-1). (End)
