Trampoline

Key Information

Scottish Student Trampolining (SST) is one of the most rapidly growing and popular SSS sports!

The Scottish Student Trampoline Open is the flagship event of the Scottish Student Games with over 500 students competing from across the UK and Ireland.

Throughout the year there are four league competitions with the 3rd competition each year being the Scottish Student Trampoline Open (SSTO). Competitions take place on Saturdays with SSTO being a weekend-long competition. There are nine universities within Scotland that offer trampolining; Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Glasgow Caledonian, Robert Gordon University, St Andrews, Stirling and Strathclyde. Additionally, students from  England, Ireland and Wales are invited to participate in our competitions too.

At SST competitions, there are six levels to compete at, ranging from novice to pro-elite. Trampolining in SST is judged on three things: execution, difficulty and horizontal displacement. However, BUCS competitions also include time of flight.

Becca Brooks
I am thrilled to take on the role of Scottish Student Trampolining Chair, and excited for the opportunity to positively impact the sport at the university/college level! Trampolining has been a lifelong passion of mine, I have been a coach, judge and competitor and have over 10 years of experience in the sport.
I hold a mechanical engineering degree from the University of Strathclyde and am currently pursuing an HND in Jewellery at Glasgow Kelvin College. Throughout my time at university, I have held various committee positions, all of which have prepared me to take on this role in SST. I am eager to work with my fantastic committee and to bring fresh ideas and improvements to the sport.
I look forward to building on the community’s success and making trampoline an even more rewarding experience for students across Scotland.
