As part of our outreach for Child Abuse Prevention Month, the USA Gymnastics Safe Sport Department  conducted a webinar on “How to Talk About Child Sexual Abuse Prevention,” which is available in the webinar archive.  I have included a link to the webinar because it provides some of the guidance you and your professional members have requested for addressing safe sport issues.   I also encourage you to share with the professional members in your states and regions. And, as always, please contact Toby Stark, our director of safe sport, if you have any questions.  We appreciate your time and dedication to our athlete’s safety and well-being.

TEXAS STRONG and PROUD YA'LL!

AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 1, 2017 – The Gymnastics Association of Texas (GAT), a 501(c)(3) corporation, has established the GAT Hurricane Harvey Relief Fund to help gymnastics clubs impacted by Harvey. USA Gymnastics supports the Gymnastics Association of Texas (GAT) Hurricane Harvey Relief Fund, which GAT established to help gym owners hit hard by Hurricane Harvey with their efforts to rebuild, refurbish, clean and recover. Many clubs are at or near a total loss. The support is not only for clubs in South and Southeast Texas, but also Louisiana and other areas impacted by Hurricane Harvey.

Texas USA Gymnastics will match up to $10,000 in donations to the Harvey Relief Fund. We would really like to donate $10,000, so we are hoping to encourage others to join us in raising as much a possible to help our gyms impacted by Harvey.

Texas USA Gymnastics wants to help, so please contact your District Coaches Representatives or Debbie Williams, with any questions or request you may have.

Big Texas Congratulations to Two Amazing Women! Kim Zimeskel and Amiee Bormann receive U.S.O.C. coaching honors

Special Congratulations to Texas Olympians and Coaches! We are so very proud of all of you!
