Trio star for Wisbech Fenland Flyers Trampoline and DMT Club in opening season qualifier at Harlow

A new competition season starts for Fenland Flyers Trampoline and DMT Club.

This season the competitors only have two competitions to score enough marks to be able to compete in the Regional Team Qualifier in March 2020.

So, there is even more pressure for them to do their best in this first competition of the season. The qualifier took place in Harlow, and Flyers took 26 gymnasts, to which 16 of those children also competed in the Double Mini Trampoline (DMT) competition.

Their stars of the day were three competitors with additional needs: 9 year old Jayden Smith, who trampolines with two prosthetic legs was first to compete along with Kieran Prpa and Fabienne Clement-Degrieck. All three achieved first place in their category, an amazing start to the competition.

Club level performers were next to compete with Harley Calton and Daisy Hackett competing for the first time. Both were extremely nervous, but with the support of their team mates Harley was placed second in his group and Daisy achieved 4th in hers.

National Development competitors were all trying out new routines as they have moved up one or two levels from last season. This was a tough competition and the nerves got the better of some. On this occasion it was the younger competitors that coped with the pressure, with Bailey Hanrahan taking bronze in the 9-10 year olds, Kate Pattingale and Reilly Anderson took silver in the 11-12 year olds.

Some 17 out of the 26 competitors achieved the required score to compete in March, in an excellent start to the season.

In the Double Mini Trampoline competition, the gymnasts had a much better competition with 11 out of the 16 taking one of the top three positions. The 11 medal winners also scored enough marks to be put forward in competition in March. This is an amazing result as this is only the third competition at DMT most of these gymnasts have had.

In this competition 11 out of the 16 have achieved the required score to compete in March.
