NEW FOR 2024 !
Junior World Championship Category
For 2024, the FTA is introducing a NEW Junior Category, ages 13 - 15 (you must be turning 13 in 2024, or born in 2011), that will have slightly different judging and scoring rules than the Seniors (age 16+). The FTA is looking for technique and to ensure the Juniors are not going for ‘big’ skills they are not yet prepared to land to feet. We are looking for true athletic control. We want them to be balanced and show good landings for the future of their athletic development.
Therefore, the judging differences will include:
-
The final skill of the combo MUST be landed to feet on the trampoline.
-
If the Athlete subsequently ‘flys off’ the trampoline and does NOT land on their feet they will still receive a score, however, there will be a deduction of at least 4.0 points from their total score for lack of control.
-
If the Athlete subsequently ‘flys off’ the trampoline but still lands on their feet they will receive a deduction of 2.0 from their total score for lack of control.
-
-
Each combination MUST show a variety of both forward and backward rotations.
-
Each combination MUST show at least one skill with a double twist within the skill (ie. Full Full) with a good variety of both flipping and twisting skills within the combo.
-
Each combination MUST show at least one feet-to-feet skill (take off from feet and land on feet) at some point in the combo.​​
Junior Athletes travel & accommodations to Barcelona will not be covered by the FTA this year. You must make your way to Barcelona. Only the Senior winner will have travel costs covered by the Qualifier Park. In 2025 we will look at possibly covering both.
Anyone competing under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an parent or adult.
