Pre-competitive 2 (6 – 7 years of age)
Will train up to 9 hrs/week
The growth and development of the athlete at this age will determine whether they will advance to either our Pre-competitive 3 or our Intermediate program.

Trampoline Travel Teams

The philosophy of the trampoline program is to allow experienced athletes an alternative to artistic gymnastics (men’s or women’s) or the inexperienced athlete an opportunity to be introduced to the sport of gymnastics through trampoline. The structure of the program is simple, with interclub, provincial and national stream programs which are based solely on difficulty requirements. If the athlete has limited experience in trampoline, they will begin in the pre-competitive level.

Pre-Competitive Program (Ages 7+) 2-4 hours
The pre-competitive program allows the athlete to build a basic skill level to compete at a competitive level. Conditioning and basic trampoline elements the pre-competitive program.

Provincial Level (Ages 9 and up) 2 to 3 days per week – 5-7.5 hours
The provincial stream levels, with a specific difficulty requirement at each level. The focus of this program is for the athlete to compete at a level which is both rewarding and challenging. The athlete will compete in provincial qualifiers attempting to qualify for the Ontario Provincial Championships by achieving the minimum score criteria.

National Level (Up to 10 hours per week)
The national level is the highest level of trampoline. This program is designed for those athletes who have surpassed the provincial level difficulty and have a desire to learn and compete more advanced tumbling skills. Athletes will attend National Trampoline Championships if they reach a minimum score criteria at the Ontario Championships. This level requires much more dedication and commitment than the previous levels.
