USAG does not require all coaches to be members, therefore to coach, you do not necessarily need a background check. Lots of clubs have recreational coaches or coaches who are not not he floor at meets who are not USAG members and not background checked. Plus, as raenndrops mentioned, there are other gymnastics organizations in the US that have their own rules (or lack of rules) regarding coaching certification. There is limited, if any, communication between the two groups, so even if USAG gets a bad report about a coach and actually does pass it along to gyms in that geographic area, I doubt they would communicate it to a non-USAG program. There are SO many loopholes in the sport of gymnastics in the US.
there are loopholes in all of this in all of society. this is how the POS's work the system. it's NOT just in the sport of gymnastics. it's everywhere!
