Does your gym require documentation to come back after an injury - personal and or gymnastics related?
Sprains and being sore are common. But what about injuries requiring surgery and/or needing bracing/boots/crutches? Is there a uniform standard for returning after an injury/ surgery or is it up to the gym?
If your gym doesn’t require anything, do you think they should?
Or do they rely on parents to be 100% honest with their coaches?
This forum has quite a few coaches so I’m interested so se their perspective and of course parents.
I’m curious as I’m seeing a few of my DDs teammates having all of the above and some coming back quicker than anticipated- like months quicker at full speed. No easing into anything. I acknowledge everyone is different and heals differently as well.
Was just curious what other gyms do.
