Discipline Trampolining
Contact Annemarie Barr
Discipline Information: This is a spectacular sport that can require a top trampolinist to reach heights of 10 metres whilst performing multiple somersaults and twists. As well as being a sport in its own right, it is widely recognised as a training tool for many other gymnastic disciplines and sports such as diving and freestyle skiing.

Trampolining can be seen as a reflection of man's desire to defy gravity. Early civilisations devised various methods of sending a person into the air, such as using outstretched animal skins to throw them up and safely catch them on their descent. Circuses have used a number of methods to propel performers into the air for a variety of somersaults.

An Olympic discipline, the first British Olympians in Trampolining were Lee Brearley in the Men's and Jaime Moore in the Women’s event at the Sydney 2000 Games.
