how does the alternates process work for worlds 2011. do they need to be registered at the comp where the bid was recieved or can my friend come in and help.
You can have 10 substitutions to your roster....3 of which are alternates that can come from anywhere...they do not have to be currently at your gym and they did not need to be competing for your gym at the competition you received your bid.
If however they competed for another gym this year they will need to receive a release from their original gym in order to compete with you

It is a nice way to make sure that recruiting isn't happening and to ensure athletes follow through with their commitment to the original gym...BUT... if the gym has been paid and the season is over the next step to this is the hard part ... being willing to sign the release and not allow personal stuff to cloud the issue.

so a team can pick anyone to run on their team up until they compete? So the roster means nothing? I thought that the alternates had t be in pace the day you got the bid?
I think they are saying that yes...they can as long as they have not competed with another program....if they have they would need a signed release from that program....am I right?
