Summer dangers

With google showing a marked increase in searches for trampolines over May and June it is likely that many parents are considering buying garden trampolines thinking of the hours that will be whiled away for their kids over the long holiday. For many, though, many hours may also be whiled away in A&E departments with one Scottish hospital recently having reported treating nearly ten injuries a week over a 6-week study period!

Brentwood Tampline Club recently issued an announcement to local newspapers giving advice on this subject - read it on our website here.

First Pegasus Open Results

What a great half day this was for some of our keener young members. Held at the Gainsborough Sports centre in Ipswich this competition focussed on the lower Club and Regional grades and our members came away with a nice haul of trophies. With just 10 members making it there on the day all bar 2 came away with a trophy or medal and those who didn't were pleased with their performances.

Following his success in last year's Brentwood Sports Awards, Paul Kitchen was delighted (if not obviously so from the photo) to be chosen as Sports Coach of the Year by Brentwood Sports Council at the Brentwood Centre last week - well done Paul.
