Trampoline History

As an officer in the Naval Pre-Flight Training Program, George demonstrates the trampoline to a group of his cadets at St. Marys California, 1942.

In the Fall of 1940, George Nissen and Xave Leonard, had visited several military bases where they had demonstrated the trampoline as a new and unique method for physical fitness training. They had made visits and given demonstrations at Randolph Field in San Antonio, Texas, Corpus Christi, Fort Benning Georgia and Pensacola Naval ...Training Center.
In mid-Spring of 1941, an order for 30 trampolines was received by George from the United States Navy. He was also given priority papers to purchase the steel tubing he would need in their manufacture. Thirty trampolines at that time was a big order and George would do everything in his power to fulfill the commitment.

Torneio Mestre Sammer 2013

A cidade carnavalesca de Torres Vedras, foi este sábado palco do 9º Torneio Mestre Josef Sammer.
Uma prova carismática na gíria dos trampolins, designadamente, nos aparelhos de Duplo-Mini Trampolim e Tumbling, a qual teve a presença de atletas como Bruno Nobre (mais uma vez vencedor, e em grande forma), Ana e Andreia Robalo, Joana Pereira (infelizmente muito abaixo de forma, mas sempre com a sua tão conhecida aura positiva e espírito de entreajuda para com os colegas), e outros.

Em suma, esta prova serviu para os ginastas colocarem em prova as suas séries, e para arriscarem um pouco mais na dificuldade em prol da execução.

USA Gymnastics launches pilot program to help clubs develop curriculum opportunities

Ten U.S. clubs will have the opportunity to participate in a new program to help clubs increase enrollment, further develop their class offerings, and offer a fun transition for current students who are looking to diversify. Trampoline gained a lot of exposure leading up to and during the 2012 Olympic Games in London, and triggered interest in the sport. USA Gymnastics' Trampoline and Tumbling Program is launching a pilot program to incorporate competitive trampoline into the curriculum in gyms across the nation and to expand its Olympic pipeline.

 

"Trampoline is gaining in popularity and is a natural addition to the classes offered at gymnastics clubs," said Susan Jacobson, director of USA Gymnastics trampoline and tumbling program. "Kids love bouncing, and trampoline combines traditional gymnastics moves with the 'wow' factor that kids enjoy."

 

USA Gymnastics Trampoline and Tumbling will identify 10 gymnastics clubs in 2013-14 to participate in the pilot program and become Trampoline Development Centers. In 2013, clubs may apply by either March 1 or July 1 to be among the first four clubs selected. In 2014, three clubs will be chosen following the two deadline dates, March 1 and July 1.

Great Romanian gymnastics champions in the Relay of the European Youth Olympic Winter Festival

The Olympic Flame, one of the symbols of the modern Olympic Games, was lit again in Olympia for one of the most important winter event: the EYOF, a biennial sport event for talented young participants from all over Europe.

 

In 1990, under the initiative of Dr. Jacques Rogge, IOC President, the European Olympic Committees launched the "European Youth Olympic Days" (EYOD), now called “European Youth Olympic Festival” (EYOF which means “European Youth Olympic Festival”), the only multi-sport event of this Continent. This event has a summer – with gymnastics as the main sport of the Program - and a winter edition.

The EYOF 2013 winter edition will take place in mid-February; this will be the first major competition organized in Romania under the Olympic flag.

The EYOF was founded on the basis of the Olympic legacy: a philosophy that elevates the qualities of the body, willpower and spirit and combines them. Sport is connected to culture and education, leading to the Olympic Values: friendship, respect and excellence.
