Jayme said

I’m proud of myself for achieving a medal at the Nationals. I started trampolining back in year 8 at Haygrove school, and this is the highlight of my sporting career so far. I want to personally thank my coach Helen and the rest of the team for making this possible. Team BTC trampolining feels like a family and I’ve loved every minute of training and competing.

Team BTC Coach Helen Peregrine-Wheller said

After a tough couple of years’ training through the pandemic, getting to the Nationals this year has been a huge achievement for the squad. This group has demonstrated outstanding dedication and hard work throughout, and it was great to celebrate this at Nationals to end the year.
