I hope this Newsletter finds you well and looking forward to the 2022 season.
USAG updated policies on Covid protocols. Please see sanction_nonnational.pdf (usagym.org) to read the document. Essentially, it is now saying for state and regional meets only the local CDC guidelines need to be met. Westerns and Nationals will still have a mask mandate requirement in place. We are experiencing a COVID surge, but you are well prepared to have the necessary protocols in place to provide a safe event for the athletes; coaches; officials; staff; families and friends.
USA Gymnastics has updated COVID guidance to assist event directors and participants.
As the season progresses – the protocols for the 2022 Regional Championships will be monitored and shared with the membership.
Updated COVID guidance Link
There are several items that require your attention as we move into 2022:
Most important! Do you have SENIORS in high school? We need a LIST for Level 7,8, 9, and 10 and Xcel Gold, Platinum, and Diamond. Sadly, last year there were athletes at regionals who came at the end of awards when we asked if there was anyone else and said they were a senior and we did NOT have them listed. There was at least one every session! PLEASE send me your names. We also want to make sure we have enough senior gifts for them.
U 112 Tough Coaching or Emotional Abuse Course Link
Failure to complete this course by January 10, 2022, will result in your membership being placed in pending status. Review membership requirements here .
USA Gymnastics offers Health Insurance benefits Link
Save the date- Regional Congress dates are August 13 and 14 at the MAC Club in Portland. Testing for Nationals and Brevet judges will be provided. There will also be a U200 course offered. More to come.
Sad news- Merge Eilers, a longtime judge in Washington, has passed away.
Thank you to everyone who help to support the leotard fundraiser. We made $4500! Our other fundraiser is going great! Please put it out to your parents and have your clubs donate. So far, we have club donations from Emerald City Gymnastics, Island Tumblers, Naydenov Boosters, and PEAK. We also have several donations from families.
In closing, thank you for your commitment to USA Gymnastics Region 2.
Best wishes for a happy and healthy 2022,

Hello Region 2,
IMPORTANT: High Tech Date Change (This the 3rd and final date announcement)
High Tech October 23-24th Metropolitan Kent, WA (please note)
My sincere apologies for the confusion on the dates for High Tech. There has been many obstacles and commitments that needed to be worked around. My goal this year has been to get a date that all clubs can and will participate. This will be a great experience for not only the athletes but also the coaches to work together. This is the date that gives the best chance at a majority of club participation.)
Oct 2-3rd Super Camp North Emerald City- Redmond, WA Registration open on USA Gymnastics
SUPER NORTH (Download the PDF)
Oct 16-17th Super Camp South Naydenov-Vancouver WA Registration open on USA Gymnastics
SUPER SOUTH (Download the PDF)
Nov 20-21st High Tech Metropolitan, Kent WA (This date has changed from Nov. 13-14th) Date change-see above
Who can attend Super Camp? Level 6’s safely training level 7 skills and Level 7-10.
Who can attend High Tech? Level 9 Western Qualifiers and Level 10 Regional qualifiers. If your athlete did not compete last year due to Covid or injury, please send me an email request and I will submit to my committee to review. The criteria is in place to make for a quality camp, not to exclude people who had a difficult year due to Covid, illness or injury.
Safe Training!
Tiffany Quincy
RDPCC Region 2
Good morning all State and Regional Administrative chairs,
I have been asked to share the below with you from USAG’s Safe Sport department:
As most of you are aware, USA Gymnastics released our updated 2021 USA Gymnastics Safe Sport policy in August. This policy builds and expands on the previous policy, and was created in accordance and compliance with the U.S. Center for Safe Sport and includes all mandatory components of the Center’s model policy, the Minor Athlete Abuse Prevention Polices (MAAPP).
The updated policy adds a couple of new requirements for State and Regional Committees, outlined below.
- All state and region websites MUST provide a link to both reporting portals of the U.S. Center for SafeSport and USA Gymnastics. The links to both portals can be accessed below. The links do not have to be located in a specific location on the website, nor are they required to have more prominence than other links on the page. It is essential that they are visible and can be located easily by a random user of the website. Both portals need to indicate which agency the link applies to. For example, “Click here to make a report to the Center for SafeSport” or “To make a report to USA Gymnastics click here.”
- USA Gymnastics Reporting Portal: https://usagym.i-sight.com/portal
- U.S. Center for Safe Sport Reporting Portal: https://uscenterforsafesport.org/report-a-concern/
- Additionally, the Center for SafeSport is requiring that anyone with regular contact and/or authority over minors who works at a USA Gymnastics sanctioned event, must be given access to a letter that highlights the basic tenets of the USA Gymnastics Safe Sport Policy. To meet this requirement, USA Gymnastics has taken steps to reach all members regardless of status at an event. We are asking for all State and Regional Committees to post a link to this letter on their website for easy access for meet directors, and anyone else in need of the information. Communicating Safe Sport policy is required per federal mandate and a part of the audit standards imposed by the Center. The letter should be titled, “USA Gymnastics Safe Sport Letter”
- USA Gymnastics Safe Sport Letter: https://usagym.org/PDFs/Member%20Services/Sanction/Signs/safesportletter.pdf
As always, if you have any questions, please contact us at safesportpolicy@usagym.org.

MEET DIRECTORS
NEW this season, Meet Directors are able to scan USA Gymnastics members’ membership cards to view their membership status in real-time. This new feature will allow meet directors/sanction administrators the ability to verify memberships quickly if an individual was not previously registered for their event.
- Judges must be entered into the sanction by the event director, sanction administrator, or Meet Referee.
- Event directors or sanction administrators must also add on-site and late entries (athletes, coaches, and judges) into the Meet Reservation system.

On another note:
I feel it is important to address a concern that impacts the competitive choices for a gymnastics club. As a private business, it is your decision to participate in any organization/s you choose. It is also important to determine the accuracy of the messaging from those organizations, particularly if they reference USA Gymnastics. The USA Gymnastics State / Regional / National Committees have worked tirelessly to provide a safe – organized and educational program for the entire membership. Our focus has always been on the growth and development of all programs with an emphasis on grass roots initiatives. We have emphasized the educational components needed to nurture this philosophy. Typically, I would not address this publicly, but there is misinformation that some of these groups are broadcasting about our organization. The messaging is incorrect, and I would suggest a closer look at their rhetoric. As always, thank you for your continued support of USA Gymnastics Region 2.
Wishing you all a healthy and successful season,
Marian DeWane, RACC

This will be a continuing event – we made enough in entry fees after paying bills to outfit our level 10’s for Nationals. Yea! From the sale of Leos at regionals, we helped outfit our Level 9 athletes. Thank you to Shay Garner from GK and all you that bought them! We have 55 Level 10’s going to Florida and 77 Level 9’s going to Iowa.
- Next year, we will be going back to our traditional qualifying for the Regional Meet: Level 9 and 10 need a 34 at their state meet, Level 7 and 8 will both be percent of a percent to fill 3 sessions of 8 and 3 or 4 sessions of Level 7. The regional committee will firm up number of sessions for Level 7 in their next meeting. Next year DP Regionals are hosted by Naydenov in the Portland Area and Xcel Regionals are hosted by Northwest Aerials in the Seattle area.
- Compulsory Update:
Compulsory workshop Reno event: cost $385 and includes all online materials.
- There is still space both live (it is half full) and virtual. The online version will be streamed live BUT will also be recorded ONLY for those with virtual access and will be available for 1 week after the event.
- Those who preorder the compulsory book but do not attend, they will be shipped books after the Reno event ends. FYI – If purchasing the materials, the big book is 75 and the mini version is 50. The online materials will be $125 if you do not attend the workshop either virtual or in-person.
- The mini books are what will be given to those who register for the events. If attending live, you will get them at the event and if virtual, they will be shipped so you have them within the week of the event. The Monday after the event, all the materials in your USAG will be able to be accessed such as the music, videos of the routines, etc. There is a Spanish version of the compulsory book being made.
All materials such as the compulsory online book will NOT be downloadable as an iBook onto an iPad. It will always have to be accessed through USAG each time you want to use it, that way it will be always updated but it also means you will have to be online and logged into USAG every time you want to access it through your membership profile page.
The new compulsory exams for judges will be online. More details will come out later.
For those wants to sanction mobility meets for the old Level 4 and 5 compulsories, this can be done through July 31st. The new compulsories will begin August 1.
- National Congress:
National Congress will be held with Olympic Trials. Information will be coming out next week. They are waiting on a finalized schedule to post.
- Regional Congress:
Regional Congress will be held at OMEGA in Beaverton August 13 – 15. August 13th will be a compulsory boot camp for athletes. More details will come out after Nationals. Each chairman is working on their respective track for Saturday and Sunday. 😊 I am looking forward to seeing you all there!
- News:
When the DP optional and Xcel programs change in 2022, there is discussion of only 1 code. If you are in favor let Linda and Dianne know before their meetings in May.

From Tiffany:
Congratulations to everyone for making a success out of a difficult year. It was inspiring to see how hard your athletes have worked to keep their passion for gymnastics alive. Good luck to all of our Region 2 qualifiers!
This summer brings us our new compulsory routines. We are working on adding workshops for the compulsory gymnasts/coaches over the summer. It has been proposed to add an athlete day to Region 2 congress for compulsory review and instruction. Some type of an athlete day would be a great jump start to the new routines and help for anyone who is unable to attend the Compulsory Workshops.
The National Committee meeting is just around the corner at Level 10 Nationals. I have had several excellent suggestions for topics to add to the committee’s agenda. Please send me any of your ideas for the National meeting agenda, as well as feedback and ideas for the Region. If we all work together, we can make changes and make a difference.
Safe Training!
