WORLD JUMP ROPE

Braidhurst pupil, Tammy Smith, recently participated in the World Jump rope Championships in Florida, USA.   Tammy and her two team-mates were Scotland’s first ever competitors and between them, the team won a silver and three bronze medals.   The team also took part in a skills workshop which gave them some great insights, in preparation for next year’s world championships in Paris.   Tammy commented that it was a ‘great experience which has boosted my confidence.   Getting to visit Florida, meeting professional jumpers and witnessing their amazing techniques helped make it the opportunity of a lifetime.”  Everyone at Braidhurst is extremely proud of Tammy’s excellent achievements.
