- Scott Bregman was also let go from USAG, which means we probably won't get free streams for meets anymore.
- The US Olympic Committee has hired an FBI executive as their Athlete Safety Director.

- USAG held a National Team training camp at Flip Fest in Crossville, TN. This was the only training camp before the American Classic, U.S. Classic, and U.S. Nationals. It was also used as a tune-up event for the athletes going to the Junior Pan American Championships in Argentina. Unfortunately, the camp was cut short (see above.)
