Starting a new thread from the Chow thread.
I had never heard of having a year or longer contract with any gym. I copied this from Geddert Twistars' policy information with regards to Level 10 Athletes:
"Once an athlete has attained the status of Level 10, there has been significant time and effort invested into their gymnastics. For this reason we transition from a 30 day notice to a full one year notice of departure (kind of like joining most health clubs). IF an athlete retires from the sport, this commitment will be waived, thus it only applies should they decide to take our years of training and contributions to another gymnastics club within the state of Michigan."
Is this something new in the gymnastics world? Has it always been this way? I honestly cannot imagine signing a contract like this. Has anyone on this board signed a contract like this. Thoughts...
