Teams

Competitive

In the Competitive Team, jumpers further their skills by practicing three times a week. Competitive jumpers spend their time in speed and power (double unders) drills and building individual and group routines. All competitive members take part in the Fraser Valley Speed Competition, Records Day and Provincials.

Recreational

In the Recreational Team, your child will not only experience the fun of learning skipping 'tricks', but will build confidence, strength, stamina and agility. We spend our time on Monday nights practising our speed, long rope, and trick skills. Skippers get to experience the levelled jump rope program called “Can Skip” through which they learn different tricks for mastery.
