TRAMPOLINE FOR ALL

EALING SCHOOLS TRAMPOLINE CHAMPIONSHIPS 2009

Following the (relatively limited) success of last year’s Ealing Schools Trampoline Championships we are again going to host a similar event on Friday October 16th at (Reynolds Sports Centre} Acton High School.

Given our Ealing base, we would obviously like to keep this as an Ealing Schools competition but we have already had some approaches from local, non- Ealing Schools, and in the event, therefore, of a very small Ealing Schools entry we will be opening the event up to other West London schools.

The closing date will be September 26^th (postmark date)

There is no entry fee for this event. This is intended as an open and friendly competition to be run on informal grounds. Rules and regulations will be kept to a minimum. Volunteer judges will be needed – training will be given where necessary on the day!

General regulations

WARM UP TIME SCHEDULED FROM 12.30-1.15 P.M. (TEAM MANAGERS TO SUPERVISE PLEASE)
JUDGES TO HAVE A BRIEFING SESSION AT THIS TIME.
Please arrive IN COMPETITION ATTIRE, as facilities are limited.
team managers to be responsible for their team's valuables and behaviour.
TEAMS: Teams of FOUR girls/boys or mixed, that are in their correct age group.
Age groups are as follows: Under 11, year 7 & 8, 9, 10/11 or Senior (12/13)
Individual entries are also allowed
Each school/college will be allocated a seating area. Please ensure that schools remain seated until they are called, to avoid distracting the performer and judges.
On arrival please hand in your completed competitors sheets to the marshals desk.
Each competitor needs to complete the sheet before arrival. If they are repeating the compulsory routine they write "SET ROUTINE'. For others, it is important that their voluntary is written correctly, with each touch of the bed on a new line, so that the performer is not marked down for doing too many or less bounces. If you cannot work out the tariff values don't worry, we will complete on the day.
Please do the usual safety checks for your teams (e.g. hair, jewellery, socks/gym shoes etc.)

Each competitor will perform the compulsory routine first. Once all the competitors have been, they will perform their voluntary routine in the same order. A separate warm up for this round will depend on time, but it is more likely that we will go straight into this round.
The judges and assistants will total the PERFORMANCE SCORES for the compulsory and voluntary routines PLUS the VOLUNTARY TARIFF. The THREE best results from the team of three or four will be added together for the overall team result.
