Statement from USA Board of Directors regarding Mary Bono

 

Please attribute to USA Gymnastics Board of Directors

The USA Gymnastics Board of Directors accepted the resignation of Mary Bono as interim president and CEO.  Despite her commitment to the sport of gymnastics and helping the organization move forward, we believe this is in the best interest of the organization.  We, as a Board, are committed to taking action when we believe a change of course is necessary and to being responsive to our gymnastics community. 

 

While we continue the search for a permanent president and CEO and are currently seeking input from key stakeholders on that search, we remain steadfast in our efforts to fundamentally transform the organization at all levels to ensure athlete safety and well-being is at the heart of everything we do.  We are also committed to making sure that the focus remains on the athletes – including this week as our men and women head to Doha to compete in the World Championships. While we have made progress, we have much more work to do. This board is determined to take the necessary steps to support a safe, inclusive and competitive environment where all our athletes and members can grow, have fun and achieve their goals.
