T&T Olympic Development National Teams

The Trampoline and Tumbling Olympic Development Program (ODP) is intended to act as a bridge between the Junior Olympic and Junior Elite levels. The program will provide a training camp, coaches’ education and an ODP team named from the qualification camp.

• Athletes who are currently competing Level 10 and are 9-14 years of age (as of December 31, 2010), who finished in the top 10 in Level 10 trampoline and/or tumbling at 2010 J.O. Championships.
• Athletes who are currently competing Level 9 or 10 and are 9-12 years of age (as of December 31, 2010), who finished in the top 10 in Level 9 trampoline and/or tumbling at 2010 J.O. Championships.

Following the 2010 ODP Camp, the ODP committee will select the 2011 ODP Team, as follows:

1. Trampoline – 8 boys and 8 girls
   Tumbling – 8 boys and 8 girls
2. Level 9 and 10 athletes will be ranked together.
3. The top-ranked boy and top-ranked girl from each age group (9-10, 11-12, 13-14), based on the physical abilities testing and competition at the camp, will be named to the team.
4. Positions 4-8 on the team will be named from the remaining athletes in rank order from the camp, regardless of age.
