    2.      The athlete must have a meet with a MINIMUM All Around score of 1.0 over the qualifying score of the Regional Meet.
    3.      The petition must include the Illness/Injury Petition Form, which can be found in the “Forms” section of the Region 4 website, a copy of the results to verify 1.0 or more over the qualifying score, and a note from a LICENSED medical professional that verifies the injury, and the DATE that the athlete may return to activity.
    4.      You must notify the appropriate person of your intent to petition by the end of Monday following the meet.
    5.      You must get all paperwork listed in #3 to the appropriate person by the end of Wednesday following the meet.

    I hope everyone is staying healthy. 

    We would like to welcome Tammy Donahue to the WI State board as an appointed contact/communication administrator. Here is the link from the July Meeting:  July SAC meeting.

    Here is the 2020-21 WI Rules & Policies with an addendum for COVID.  The first page has an overview of the changes for the 2020-21 season.  There are also highlighted changes throughout the R&P that relate to this year only.
    We looked at all the responses to the compulsory meet request email Randy and I sent out. All the clubs that responded received a meet.  I have created a calendar on the state website with the meets listed on it.  If you would like an optional meet added to the calendar, just email me. For the 2020-21 season, all meets of 2 or more clubs are considered qualifying meets  Please email Sarah Nelson for judges.   https://usagymwi.com/calendar/.  
    I have updated  https://usagymwi.com/ .  Some of the things that have changed are below.

    We will be using the 2019-20 USA Gymnastics active member and club email lists until October.  Please make sure your club email and person member emails are correct on USA Gymnastics because that is where I am getting my email lists from.

    Thanks,
