future USA Gymnastics Training Centre?

Interesting idea.

There are pros and cons with National Training Centres. Recall that Gymnastics Australia quit the Australian Institute of Sport due to problems.

MAG and all other FIG disciplines would benefit most by training with WAG, the highest profile discipline.

IF it happens, USAG will have to choose a location. More central geographically would make for easier travel logistics.

Certainly any State with abortion restrictions should not be considered. After all, USAG wants to call this a “Wellness Center“.

Worst are those in dark orange.

Human rights and safety of athletes should be highest priority for parents sending their children off to camp.

    1. Of course not all members want women to have the right to choose. But this is intended by USA Gymnastics to be a “Wellness Center“ and Training Centre. After Nassar, USAG should do everything possible to protect athletes. It would send entirely the wrong message to put their centre in Texas or Oklahoma, for example.
