Competitive Jump Rope
At Albuquerque Air, we take jump rope to a higher level. Competitive jump rope is sweeping the nation and is one of the fastest growing sports for boys and girls. Jump rope combines strength, flexibility, and endurance and is one of the best sports for overall physical conditioning and agility.
Being successful in jump rope takes good coaching and hard work. We have combined these qualities with a fun environment so children can reach their full potential as athletes.
Goal
Train jumpers to compete at the highest levels of competition on the regional, national and international level. Develop younger jumpers that love the sport and want to compete.
Who Can Join?
Jumpers of any age that can master 45 basic Level 1 jumping skills, pass an entry level speed test, and are committed to practice with the team.
Attending “CLUB JUMP” is a great way to get information on becoming a member of “Albuquerque Air Jump Rope”.
Success
All of our core jumpers have placed in the top ten in national competitions, with three of our jumpers placing 2nd nationally.
