School and Cambridge Cangaroos, who train at Sawston and Netherhall schools.
A full results sheet is attached but highlights of the results are as

who have just started the sport, the winner was Rebecca Reed from Loughton
Flyers, Cangaroos team of Sydney Kelly, Alexa Hanson, Charlotte Allen

on the 3rd place medal
In the beginners group, this was won Meghan Donaghy from Lougon Flyers,
with a team from Tiggers competing well
The Grade 6 competition was heavily contested as always, with it split

There were 26 teams competing during the day and the top 3 results were
a battle between the two Cambridge clubs again, with the hosts Cangaroos
taking the coveted first place. The winning teams were as follows: In
1st place under 15 grade 4 male cangaroos team of: Max Fagelman, Michael
Keelin and Joe Chandler. In 2nd place the Grade 4 under 11 female team
from Tiggers of Tate Tucker, Jordan Winter and Katie Reynolds and in 3rd
place from Tiggers, the grade 6 under 15 female team of Sophie Rudkin,
Chloe Haynes and Joanna Stanley.
Other competitions that took place that day included the Trampoline Synchro
event, this is where two trampolinists bounce together to try to produce
mirror images of each other whilst performing the same routine on different
trampolines. In the intermediate competition the winning pair were Tate
Tucker and Katie Reynolds from Tiggers and Helen Moss and Imogen Pickup
from Cangaroos were 3rd. The less said about the Cangaroos head coaches
effort with his partner in this event the better!
The competition also hosted its first ever Double Mini Tramp event and
with 10 entries the victorious winners were in 1st place Laura Shapiro,
in 2nd place, Michael Keelin and in 3rd place Imogen Pickup. A clean sweep
for Cangaroos.
Cangaroos also hosted its own closed event within the competition, with
the scores being calculated on just the execution marks of the performers.
It was all very close for the top 4 positions with Joe Chandler just piping
Max Fagelman to 3rd and Michael Keelin just losing out to Sophie Housden.
So our Club champion for 2007/08 is Sophie Housden. The club also award
prizes to the most improved performers in the club. In the “Roos”
our under 7 section, Trinity Kelly was adjudged by the coaches to be the
winner and in the Cangaroos section it was awarded to Max Fagelman.
The club makes one final award, agreed by the committee; this is given
to the person who has made the greatest contribution to the club in the
past 12 months. This year we are delighted to make this award to Laura
Shapiro. She has been a superb organiser for the club and this award is
to recognise that.
