It would be nice to be able to hear both sides of the story before rushing to judgement. I'm not defending the gym owner necessarily, but I know that parents and gym owners do not always interpret events the same way.
I believe the one in IL and the other in KY?What are the other gyms he owns
?
I know Ultimate Athletics is one. I believe this is the only GT location he is the owner of, though I could be wrong about that, definitely not the KY one.What are the other gyms he owns
?
Kind of unrelated but I've been wondering this all season. Can you not compete D2 at all, or is it just in regards to getting Summit bids?This is so unfortunate, and I am honestly surprised this doesn't happen more since some gym owners have terrible business skills and are barely making ends meet to begin with. Paying huge sums of money in advance is a risk all parents take. If what the article is reporting is in fact true (I am willing to believe it is), I am guessing the main location can be held liable. I saw a screenshot of an email from this gym owner and he was trying to say the teams would go D2 at a different competition, but this wouldn't be possible given the new rules, so that would be a blatant lie. I feel so sad for the kids involved.
One of the other gyms he owns in Illinois is also no longer on the Cheersport schedule, so it looks like it wasn't just this gym unfortunately.
I wasn't talking about GT Illinois. He owns another gym that was on the original schedule, but is no longer there.Fact: Gymtyme Illinois was never going to cheersport to begin with. I know this because my daughter is on a team there. Cheersport was never a scheduled competition for us.

It could be a mistake, but there is a mega gym at Cheersport that has a smaller location listed as competing D2. I thought the same thing, but that had we wondering.I believe you can only compete D2 at any competition if you have less than 125 athletes among all of your locations. I would find it hard to believe they can compete D2 being affiliated with GymTyme and the name on their uniforms.

Just for clarification, he's NOT one of the owners of the KY gym. One of the gyms he owns is under a different brand, which is Ultimate Athletics as @luv2cheer92 has stated.I believe the one in IL and the other in KY?
