YOUNGSTERS from local schools and throughout the Midlands relished the inaugural Jump Rope School Championships in Redditch.
Spearheaded by Jump Rope UK director and head coach Rachael Rollisson, there was a workshop in the morning and competition in the afternoon of the event at RSA Academy Arrow Vale.
The Midlands version was open to age range three upwards and featured Batchley First School and Abbeywood First School of Church Hill. Also in action were St Andrew’s First School, Westacre Middle School of Droitwich, Dodderhill Independent Girls’ School, Short Wood Primary School of Telford, Bredon Hancock’s First School of Bredon and Oasis Academy Blakenhale Junior School of Birmingham.
Rachael said: “This was a fun-based event and all of the schools performed impressively.
“Every school won at least one medal and next year we look forward to more schools being involved.
“I’d like to thank RSA Academy Arrow Vale for giving us the venue and Direct Sports Provision for sponsorship.”
