2 gymnasts in my @UrsinusCollege @UrsinusHistory sport history course said they’re really looking forward to discussing gymnastics bc of the sport’s history of abuse.

Hope to empower them w/their sport’s history! Using our @EndofSportPod eps w/Georgia Cervin of the @ISCWAG1 😉

"Curiously, Healy refers to concerns about coaches feeling they cannot do their job without fears of being accused of being hostile, harassing or abusive. One has to wonder what these coaching practices are that raise fears of being abusive?"
