in addition to the athletes in indiana, there was the new jersey gyms situation. this athlete was not granted a release which left not one but two teams scrambling to find eligible athletes to replaces the others.
I agree with kristenthegreat I'd like to see official numbers of athletes who needed a release last season. We can all name 2-3 situations from last season because athletes were not released, so there was quite a bit of commotion. However, we have no idea how many gyms amicably granted releases to athletes without conflict or public knowledge. I know there is not record or way to find numbers, but i'd be curious to find out.
I would be super interested in this as well just to see the ratio of signed releases to nonsigned. I know that I mentioned it in the other thread and won't go into detail in this one but the fact that there is no record is not good on the USASF's part when it comes to this rule.
