Petitioning to Regionals

Petitioning Information for 2008
Please get this out to your clubs. Our website has been unreliable in getting information out so I need to use this as a backup. I am attaching our Region 7 Injury Petition Form. Please have everyone use this form.

I will again be away this year during part of the petitioning time. Frances Maurantonio has volunteered (with my arm twisting) to take care of petitions while I am away.

A couple of rules.
Only three sheets of paper are necessary for faxing.
We need only ONE score of a 35.00AA or better. A 34.9999999999 will unfortunately not do the trick.
We need the Region 7 Injury Petition Form completely filled out
We need a doctor’s note with a date of return to gymnastics activity. Please do NOT fax any forms with a definite date of return. These petitions cannot be approved.

Faxing Information:
I can receive injury petition forms by fax up to April 17th and after April 25th. My fax number is 301-490-6240. Note this is a change from last year.
Between April 18th and April 24, please fax injury petition forms to Frances Maurantonio at 410-552-5088.
If you need to reach me during April 18th and April 24th you can call my cell at 240-593-1618. Please be aware of the 3 hour time difference.
I know most of you will be finished your state meets the weekend of 3/29-30. This means that all injury petition forms need to be in by Wednesday, April 2nd. For the New Jersey people, those petition forms need to be faxed to me by April 9th.

Thanks for your help with this process.
