The Sports Hall at Moor House School in Hurst Green was the venue for the Saturn V Association’s latest trampoline competition, held on Saturday 8th November. Member clubs from Caterham, Caterham on the Hill, Oxted, Horley, Hurst Green and Coulsdon all entered children for the competition.
The competitors ranged in ages from 6 to 17 years and their abilities and levels of experience were accommodated within 6 grades; ranging from relative beginner (SDF grade 8) to fairly advanced (SDF grade A3). All had to perform two routines in front of a panel of judges.
All the children pulled out all the stops and performed to the very best of their ability. There were some stunning performances. All competitors received a certificate of achievement for entering and medals were awarded for high scorers.
It was a particularly successful day for 6 year old Abigail Moore. It was her first ever competition and she won the gold medal in the under 9’s Grade 8 section. Abigail attends trampolining classes at the Rebound Hall in Caterham on the Hill and is pictured second from the left in the top row with all the other happy medal winners.

Gymnasts and Trampolinists from Pointers and Springfit competed at a recreational competition at Walton Xcel in November 2008.
The clubs were invited by Flair gymnastics and trampoline club to help celebrate their centenary, and the Saturn V children came away with some honorable distinctions. It was a fantastic occasion with a James Bond theme and many displays from the Flair gym team to keep spectators entertained throughout the day. Over 14 clubs from the South East area came to participate in judged vaults and floor routines.
All entrants from both Saturn V clubs worked very hard and showed superb routines. Out of their sixteen entrants - eleven gymnasts and five trampolinist’s - eleven members won a placing and took home eight medals.
From Springfit, Abbie Clifton was placed 4th in the intermediate girls under 10 age category, with Holly Bird and Amber Clifton achieving 3rd and 6 th places in the under 13s, and Luisa Del Maschio came in 6th place in over 13s.

From Pointers, Megan Davies placed 7th in the Novice under 9 category, with Daisy Roadnight placing 6th and Cecily Bateman placing 4th in the Novice under 10 category. For trampolining, proud parents watched as each name was called up to the podium for a medal. Lauren Acutt received Gold in the Level H under 9 category, Liam Chenery won Bronze, Lauren Pettifar won Silver and Leila Mani-Lundie won Gold in the Level H under 15 category, and finally Felicity Gibbs won Gold in the over 15 category.

Gymnastics Displays

On Monday 17th November and Wednesday 19th November 2008, Pointers, the de Stafford branch of the Association, held their final class display for the year. They were very successful and it gave parents an opportunity to see what their children have been working towards and how much they had improved. All parents and coaches from Pointers were very pleased with the standard of the gymnasts and how much they have all improved since the last displays that were held in July.
Pointers' progress medal winners for November 2008 were: Bethany Gough (Monday 5:30 – 6:30), Holly French (Monday 6:30 – 7:45), Caitlyn McPherson (Wednesday 4:00 – 5:00), Jessica Moore (Wednesday 5:00 – 6:00) and Anya Mockett (Wednesday 6:00 – 7:15).

Springfit club, the Horley branch of the Saturn V Association, held their class displays on 21st November.
Pictured here from left to right are all the progress medal winners from Springfit: Hollie Knight (10), Lucy Parker (7) Zoe Briscoe (15), Adam Herwig (11), Emily Charman (12).

The displays are arranged twice a year to showcase gymnasts’ progress throughout the previous 6 months. Each child is recognised for the progress they have made, and coaches award a progress medal to the child they consider to have made the most effort and shown the most enthusiasm for gymnastics since the last display.
