Draft:Gail Hamula
Submission declined on 15 January 2024 by Spinster300 (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Gail Elizabeth Hamula Gross (October 26, 1955 - October 10, 2022) was an American figure skater.[1]
Biography[edit]
Hamula initially competed singles before switching to pairs with partner Phillipp Grout. [2] They finished ninth at the 1975 U.S. Figure Skating Championships.
Hamula later teamed with Frank Sweiding. After winning the silver medal at the 1977 U.S. Figure Skating Championships, they finished seventh at the World Figure Skating Championships that year. Later in 1977, they won the pairs title at the Grand Prix International St. Gervais and the Nebelhorn Trophy. They finished second again at the national championships in 1978 before placing tenth at that year's World Championships. They then turned pro and toured with the Ice Capades for several years.[2]
Following her skating days, Gail married and became a dental hygienist. She was later diagnosed with Multiple Systems Atrophy and passed away in 2022.[1][3]
