About JUMP Trampoline Club
At our club we aim to run a successful Trampoline club for the benefit of the local communities, to develop each child's individual ability to their maximum potential and most importantly to have fun and enjoy the sport safely.
We aim to give members a real sense of achievement, at whatever level they achieve. We intend to expand the training of more officials, buy more equipment, and eventually own and run our own premises while regulating, encouraging, developing, facilitating and safeguarding the sport of trampolining.
The club is based in a small town called Hailsham near Eastbourne in East Sussex. It started in Hailsham in 1979 as an adult only class under leisure Centre management. Freedom Leisure they were able to expand and opened a child's class. It was quickly recognised that they needed to start more children's classes. In 2005 the club changed to Hailsham Community College Sports Hall and is currently running 8 beginner's group's three advanced children's groups and two mixed and advanced adult classes. Each group has 14 Trampolinist in them. At 15 years old the children are recognised as adults and they join the two 1 ½ hour sessions for the adults on Monday nights.
Trampolining has become recognised as an option in the national curriculum and is becoming an increasingly popular option for GCSE and 'A' level students. At this club we are lucky to have our head Coach who teaches at Hailsham Community College. Her results over the last 8 years have put the school at the top of the British Schools rankings and all local schools are encouraged to compete at the British Schools competitions with the clubs support this involves over 70 kids of all ages annually.
