Awards
All members of Apex Trampoline Club work towards the British Gymnastics Trampoline Awards Scheme. There are 15 levels to the scheme, starting at Award 1 for the complete beginner and rising to Award 15 for the National Performer. As each performer progresses through the award scheme each level becomes more challenging and so takes more time to achieve. Once an award level is completed a performer receives a pass slip and these slips can be exchanged for badges and certificates for a small fee. ( £3 during 2011/12)
The club uniform helps to identify each performers level during training and is explained in the uniforms section here.
Apex Trampoline Club Annual Competition
Each year Apex holds a club competition. This event is designed with everyone in mind including our complete beginners. We aim to keep the events low key to minimise any nerves and to gradually encourage our younger members towards the concept of competitive sports. Members are entered into groups according to their performance and skill levels based on their coaches ongoing assessment throughout the weekly training sessions. All competitors receive an award regardless of placing and this is to promote participation by the younger members.
Spectators are always welcome at the event to support and inspire our competitors.
For the results of this years competition, see our Results pages here.
Competing for Apex Trampoline Club
All our members will have the opportunity to represent the club in competition at Regional level once they have achieved Award 8. Many of our members take the opportunity to compete and our coaches are always on hand to support and advise those wishing to take the step into competing.
For most members, competitions are held in the Eastern Region which covers Essex, Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire, Norfolk and Suffolk.
