JUMP Rope UK members turned on the style to win a magnificent 94 medals at the British Jump Rope Championships which were held over two days in Glasgow.

The locally based Jump Rope UK squad had 21 competitors in action north of the border, spearheaded by coach Rachael Dale.

Jump Rope UK won 38 gold medals, 21 silver and 35 bronze and also had one overall masters champion to celebrate as Evie Lowe triumphed in the 12 to 14-year-old category.

Rachael said: “All the competitors did a fantastic job and many got personal bests on the day.




“It was an extremely successful competition for the team who even had one of their older members – head coach Rebecca Cooper – step in at the last minute to compete.

“Following the success of the British Championships, we are now working towards our next big competition, which is the World Jump Rope Championships in Florida in July next year where we will have ten team members representing the UK.”


Jump Rope UK is always looking for new sponsors to help it send as many competitors as possible to competitions.
