Letter to Meet Directors regarding posting of athlete information – click here

 

Addendum to the Meet Directors Memorandum

 

The intent of the memo is to state that athlete’s birth dates are not to be posted online at a public access website. It is because of the federal law. This includes pre-roster information, club listing of athletes and meet results. There are exceptions for approval avenues to the federal law with regards to age of the athlete, parent permission, athlete permission etc. but it is not in the best practice of this organization to try to interpret or define a federal law.  It is the best practice for our meet directors not to show the date of birth. 

 

Please note USA Gymnastics is reviewing its policies with regards to publishing birth dates of the national team members.  I hope this helps clarify.  I want to thank you all for paying attention to this. Although there have been a tremendous amount of questions, the good news is that people are paying attention and our communication channels are open and working. Thank you!

 

Background Check Information

 

NCSI is launching an online “Applicant Status Check” tool that will allow Applicants on our full-service programs to log-in to our secure site and see the status of their background screening.  Often in the process, NCSI requires additional information from Applicants to verify their identity.  If additional information is needed and/or action is required by the Applicant, they will be informed of this via email and the online status tool.  These will be the primary methods of notification to the Applicant, so please instruct your Applicants to check their email and the online status tool regularly, until such time that they see a COMPLETED status in the online tool, which means a final determination was issued to you.

 

Effective May 15th all Applicants will need a valid and active e-mail address in order to register for background screening with NCSI.  Communications from NCSI will largely be electronic, so it is imperative that Applicants have an e-mail account and that they check this regularly during the screening process.
