The Gregg School – Tumbling Talent

05 Oct 2017

Jasmine L (Year 8) had a busy two days in Liverpool at the weekend, competing in the Tumbling British Championships.

Jasmine started her preparations on Friday afternoon with podium training, which provided familiarity with the tumble track and the environment. Saturday morning arrived and Jasmine had an hour of warm-up practice before the competition started.

Jasmine performed two runs and landed both her double tuck and double pike somersaults. These skills are new to Jasmine this year and she was happy to finish in 14th place in what was an extremely competitive field. It was a fantastic experience for Jasmine to qualify for, and to compete in, such a high-level competition as her attention now turns towards preparing for the English Championships in October.

Well done Jasmine !
