A sixth consecutive title for Claire Wright
British Trampoline Championships 2006 - Results
At
the end of a season that has seen Claire Wright battling more
against herself than the opposition she went head to head
with Jaime Moore and claimed the British Title by 0.1.
The NIA in Birmingham hosted the British Trampoline Championships
in a dress rehearsal for the World Cup to be held 25th November
in the same arena.
With a new format, the 2006 Trampoline Championships attracted
a huge audience. The slick and efficient presentation gave
the performers the adrenalin rush of a big venue and the credibility
of a major production. Well over 200 entries competed for
Team, Age Group and Senior Titles. As the field thinned out
with each stage of the qualification system, Sunday was a
rare opportunity for both audience and gymnasts to experience
the excitement of a great Final.
Claire
Wright trailed a little on Saturday but pulled back with an
outstanding 19+ result, 4 points clear and the confidence
to attack the Senior Title. Jaime is an awesome opponent and
gave little away, great technique and fine form but it was
the narrowest of margins that was to deny her that elusive
GBR Champion status.
The Senior Men saw Gary Smith sidelined. Gary is recovering
from surgery, and has been back in training only for a couple
of weeks. He has his sights set on the World Cup later this
year. At this British he was there for his fellow club members.
In a great 2 day contest Simon Milnes held off James Higgins
with a comfortable 9 tenth cushion. The determination of the
sport to return to “art form” performances was
reflected in the results, to win a medal in Great Britain
you must have Great Form. 2 years today since Paul Luxon died
the trampoline community was reminded that with the Paul Luxon
memorial Trophy came a responsibility to acknowledge and carry
on the British Tradition of Beautiful Trampolining.
