Questions Remain – Taylor Lindsay-Noel

Questions Remain – Taylor Lindsay-Noel

That’s the title of an important post on Gymbrooke regarding the catastrophic injury to former Seneca gymnast Taylor Lindsay-Noel.

That post leaves us with one question:

Should GO (Gymnastics Ontario) or GCG (Gymnastics Canada Gymnastique) be required to inform members as to what happen and what steps have been taken to avoid similar types of accidents?

… I’m not sure of the answer. But it’s a very valid question.

I can tell you coaches were talking of the accident and lawsuit today at a distant competition I attended in the States. And — due to the secrecy of the details of the injury — these distant coaches are assuming that the Seneca coaches are liable.

I’ve never seen specifics of what happened. Though many rumours have floated.

Seems that Taylor was training a very difficult and dangerous new bar dismount.

I hope the facts are released soon.
