Playing and Practice Seasons -- Out-of-Season Exception -- Gymnastics

Fishback

Presidents Council, Management Council and Playing and Practice Seasons Subcommittee position:

The Presidents Council, Management Council and Playing and Practice Season Subcommittee oppose this proposal. There is not a compelling reason to reinstate the out-of-season exception in the sport of gymnastics. The rationale statement of the proposal does not clearly distinguish gymnastics from the other sports, such as diving and rifle, which previously had the out-of-season exception. Outside of the playing season, gymnastics student-athletes currently may work out in institutional facilities open to all with appropriate supervision, as well as participate in local club sport activities. Adoption of this proposal would have the practical effect of establishing a year-round playing season for gymnastics student-athletes and their coaches, and is contrary to the actions taken at the 2004 NCAA Convention.

SAAC position:  Oppose.

Nilsson

Presidents Council and Management Council position:

The Presidents Council and Management Council oppose this proposal. The purpose of the current strength and conditioning segment is to provide a safe environment in which football student-athletes may condition out of season. Use of footballs and the addition of skill instruction do not increase safety and expand the limited spring segment beyond its original intent of strength and conditioning.
