Hi everyone, we scored an important victory tonight.
When Devon Martin (Club Council chair) and I were kicked out of the AAC meeting, we asked Mike McNees (USATF interim CEO) to join us for the Club Council meeting later on. He joined us and was able to have a discussion with the coaches of the elite development clubs.
After this lengthy discussion, the Club Council passed a motion recommending to the CEO that the only uniform regulations enforced at Club Nationals are the ones in the rule book.
He accepted our recommendation.
This means for Club Nationals, you can have whatever logos you want as long as they are not offensive.
The main rule is that your team jerseys have to MATCH. We’re not even picky about shorts or base layers or any of that nonsense.
This is a relatively small victory in the big picture, but it is one of our first victories and important to many people in this group.
Thank you everyone for supporting us in this matter.
Thank you also to Track and Field News, the TFAA and the AAC for supporting us. We really appreciate it and we could not have done it without you all.
