TWENTY-EIGHT trampolinists from the Zero Gravity Academy and their coach Anne Dodds travelled to Quayside Leisure Centre in Totnes on Sunday, May 12 to compete in the Tornadoes Trampoline Club Friendly Competition.
All of the children train with their coach at Launceston Leisure Centre and at club sessions held in Okehampton.
The children and Anne had a fantastic day and finished with a total of 22 medals consisting of 12 gold, six silver and four bronze medals.
The competitors ranged from the age of six to 18 with novice categories right up to higher level performances in the Open category which is designed for competitors who regularly take part in regional competitions.
Everyone competed as an individual and as part of a team if there were enough competitors from their club taking part in the same category. There was also a synchro element at the end of the day which saw pairs of competitors keeping in time with each other to complete a routine of ten moves perfectly synchronised which was a particularly spectacular way to end the day!
The results are as follows:
P6 U11 Novice: MJ Honey — 6th; CLB1 U11 Novice: Henry Paynter — 4th; Lucy Annal — 7th; CLB2 U11 Novice: Scarlett Weaver — 2nd; CLB2 O11 Novice: Charlotte Sharland — 1st; Jessica Murray — 3rd; Emillie Hughes — 4th plus Team Gold; NDP1 U11: Mason Parker-Groves — 1st; Adela Wrzecionko — 2nd; Tilly Paynter — 4th; Isla Stannard-Heap — 6th; Ebony Honey — 9th plus Team Gold; NDP1 U13: Adam Hazucha — 1st; Evie Hughes — 2nd; Tabitha Weaver — 4th; Lilly Sharland — 5th; Meadow Morville — 6th; Georgina Graves — 8th + Team Silver and Team Bronze; NDP1 O13: Kiera Moore — 1st; Dylan Rundle — 2nd; Reanna Lucas — 3rd; Millie Vine — 4th; plus Team Gold; NDP2 013: Yasmin Rundle — 1st; NDP2 U13: Oliver Vine — 1st; NDP4 O13: Sienna Mallet — 2nd; Open Category: Arrran Stannard-Heap — 1st; Madison Vine — 4th; Imogen Spooncer — 6th + Team Gold; Synchro Novice: Adam Hazucha and Emillie Hughes — 4th; Evie Hughes and Georgina Graves —5th; Synchro Elite: Arran Stannard-Heap and Madison Vine — 1st; Imogen Spooncer and Sienna Mallet — 2nd; Dylan Rundle and Kiera Moore — 3rd plus Team Gold
