Jammin' Jumpers Team Tryouts
2024 - 2025 competition & performance TEAM A, B, and C Evaluations!
Jump Rope clinics are available to help prepare the jumper for the evaluations that will take place during tryouts. We evaluate their skills to place the jumpers at the appropriate team level based on skill and interest. The season starts in October/November. Open Jump sessions are available throughout the year. We encourage athletes to complete their fall sport commitments before attending our season practices. Additional spring sports are not encouraged at the Varsity & Junior Varsity level.
TEAM UPDATE: The Junior Team is a performance team ONLY. Jumpers on this team will not travel with the competition team.
