Reporter SCOTT M. REID of the Orange County Register is again breaking a story about a top gymnastics coach charged with sexual crimes against children.
Last week it was former U.S. Olympic team coach Don Peters.
This week it’s trampoline coach Doug Boger, already placed on the USA Gymnastics ‘permanently ineligible’ for membership list June 2010.
He’s still coaching at Art Sports World, the huge trampoline gym in Colorado Springs. (Doug’s name is still listed on the club website, unlike Don Peters who is no longer on the SCATS website.)
The article is damning. Ten former gymnasts have come forward, years after the crimes: Whitman, Carnes, Gallion, Fleming, Jewitt, Mar, Moran, Stevenson, Lenches and Wilson — detailing the charges they made to USAG.
