Teddington girls - Georgia Grant & Beth-Anne Lumb
On the Saturday, they compete in the team events with the top 8 from each catergories making in through to the coverted top 8 final individual places to compete on the Sunday for the coverted British National Titles. In recognition of making the top 8 in the country all are gaurenteed a medal, at stake are the final positions.
Georgia, at just 13 who has only been competeing in the exciting sport of Double Mini Tramp for 2 years, and was performing in her first National finals - showed concentration and determination beyond her years, performing a double somersault with a perfect landing to secure her Finals place, and ended up with a credible 5th place medal - showing great promise for the 2011 season. In addition she helped her U15 girls team secure Team Gold!
Beth -qualified for two events this year Trampoline and DMT - a great acheivement while taking GCSE's at the same time! She gave solid performances and made both top 8 finals, narrowly missing bronze in the trampoline by .1, but spurred on by this result pulled out a great jump to secure gold and a DMT British National Title, a statisfying result after working hard through-out the year. A team silver also was achieved with another Teddington resident Becci De Gaston Webb being part of that team.
Many youngsters from Teddington train and compete with Kingston Trampoline Academy - if you wish to find out more please visit their website: www.ktacademy.co.uk.
