are dedicated to providing positive trampolining opportunities for all within
Cambridgeshire and the surrounding areas. How do we operate: Cambourne Comets is
run by a committee of volunteers and we employ a number of coaches up to level

welfare of the children bouncing with us. Safeguarding: We are committed to
safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect
all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. To ensure the welfare and
safety of our members the Club has adopted in full the British Gymnastics
'Health, Safety and Welfare' policy, Safeguarding and Protecting Children Policy
and their 'Child protection Policy' We have appointed welfare officers who are
fully involved in the running of the club and with whom issues can be raised.

Thursdays at 5.30 pm and 6.30pm. How much does it cost? Sessions cost £5.50 and

run? Sessions have either 2 or 3 classes running at the same time and bouncers
are allocated a coach to suit their skills and needs. We provide one-to-one

take part in a five minute floor warm up at the start of the session, followed
by a warm up on the trampoline bed and then they are all set to train. What

etc that may get caught on the bed Trampoline shoes or socks are a must.
