Trampoline & Tumbling Team
The Elite Trampoline & Tumbling team belongs to two sister organizations,
The United States Trampoline & Tumbling Association (USTA) and the
Amateur Athletic Union (AAU). The team competes on a state and
national level throughout the season beginning in late October and
ending with 2 national competitions in mid-June and late July.
Competitions are held on weekends and may be anywhere from 10 to 200
miles away. Team members are asked to participate in 5 competitions per season and may choose to go to the State competition to qualify
Nationals. If you are interested in joining Elite's Trampoline, Tumbling &
