Secondary Program Release

2027 Information:
All athletes participating on a team at The 2027 Small Gym Summit must be a registered member of that team’s program during the 2026-2027 competition season. Any athlete that has exhibition or competed on the floor with a team in any level from a program (Primary Program) after January 1, 2027, must have a Varsity Spirit Program Release Waiver signed by the owner of the Primary Program before that athlete is eligible to compete with another program at The 2027 Small Gym Summit.

Completion of the Varsity Spirit Program Release Waiver is a required process between the Primary and Secondary Program owners. In the event a formal protest is made, and the official Program Release Waiver has not been signed, or if the Secondary Program is not able to provide one as physical proof to a Varsity Official, the Secondary Program will not be eligible or will be disqualified depending on the time of the formal protest. All Varsity Spirit Program Release Waivers must be turned in with your official USASF event roster at The Small Gym Summit.
