Severn Trampoline ClubProficiency Awards
Double mini tramp
We are now using our in house proficiency scheme to support this popular discipline. Awards are currently number 1 to 10 with 1 being the basic use and skills on the DMT progressing in stages to award 10 where the bouncers gets to design and perform passes suitable for Grade D regional competition. Please let us have your feedback about this scheme.
Trampoline
All our members train to the British Gymnastics Proficiency Awards for trampoline. This is a lovely system of measuring personal progress by developing the skills on the award sheets. Award certificates and badges are kept by the club and can be bought at sessions for £ 3.
The award scheme starts at Award 1 for beginners and progresses through body landings to somersaults. Award 15 is the most advanced requiring development of multiple somersaults with twist.
We have coaches that are qualified to sign off the whole range of awards. Progression against the proficiency scheme is recorded twice per term.
Also given below are details of the deductions system that is used to judge routines

Deductions
As trampolining is a gymnastics discipline, in competition you start with a perfect score of 10 (for style).When scoring judges make deductions dependant on how far from perfect a move is. It is helpful to know what counts as a deduction, so you can improve your technique to avoid losing points
The level of deductions applied is standard in all competitions, it is set by the gymnastics governing body F.I.G. (Federation Internationale Gymnastique) in their Code of Points document 2009. Further information on the scoring system is given in the documents below.
Click here for information on the deductions system. This includes explanations and diagrams.
Click here for the old BTF diagrams of the deductions system.This has been superseded by the system described above, but it gives more detailed diagrams of body shape and arm / leg positions and so it may be easier to understand.
