PHOENIX TRAMPOLINE CLUB (TELFORD)

Hi everyone,

It was lovely to see you all yesterday at Cocks Moor Woods and this morning at Phoenix.  I'm pleased to report that at long last between myself and Nigel we have managed to collect in all of the money for my sponsored somersault.  Thanks to the incredible generosity of yourselves plus my family and friends we raised an impressive £120.  Add to this a very generous sponsorship of £100 from my employer, Fujitsu Services, I managed to raise the fantastic sum of £220

During the course of the event I've managed to push myself to new trampolining limits (and beyond).  I had to take an enforced lay-off following a fracture to my cocyxx but eventually managed to complete my challenge with the help and assistance of many of the coaches at the club.  It felt really great (not many observed as they were asleep) achieving my goal at the 24hr bounce.  I would like to thank you all for your patience and especially to Nigel who had the belief that I could achieve this in the first place.  I must mention the support given to me by Alan (yeh go on Mo, give it a go, it'll be a doddle.. lardy .......honest!!) and from Matthew who was the most critical of coaches when putting me through my paces on our home trampoline "you must push backwards for a front sommie and forwards for a back sommie Mom" - "ok son, easier said than done"!

Spend the money wisely and please give generously to the next victim (I'm sorry that should read "brave club supporter") as I think that Nigel is already plotting another similar challenge for the future.

Good luck to you all and I'll see you all, if not before, at the next West Midlands Regional Competition - hopefully with a fully recovered ankle.

Love
