Athletes’ Council Nominations being accepted through Nov. 29, 2023

As we transition into 2024, USA Gymnastics will be opening the application window for Athletes’ Council Nominations. There is one open seat each within Women’s Artistic, Men’s Artistic, Acrobatic, Rhythmic, and Trampoline & Tumbling.

The Athletes’ Council serves as a conduit between USA Gymnastics and athletes within the sport. In addition to communicating information from USA Gymnastics directly to the athletes, Council members share the concerns of athletes with representatives from USA Gymnastics and advocate on behalf of the athletes they serve.
