The gym owner doesn't have absolute power, the parents do. Never go to a gym and that gym won't exist.
parents have no power after nov 1. don't get me wrong i think it is a good rule and nov should be enough time to make a decision but everyone should be held accountable. if athlete has to suck it up and stay then a gym owner should have to suck it up and not be able to replace them with someone they decide is "better" after nov 1 either.
