Trampoline, an elevated resilient
webbed bed or canvas sheet supported by springs in a metal frame and used as a
springboard for tumbling. Trampolining, or rebound tumbling, is an individual sport of
acrobatic movements performed after rebounding into the air from the trampoline.
Although rebound tumbling has existed for centuries, it did not achieve wide
popularity until the 20th century, when it became a featured attraction performed by
circus acrobats. The modern sport was born in 1936 with the development of the present-
day trampoline by American gymnast George Nissen.
The first unofficial American trampolining competition took place in 1947, followed
by the first official American championships in 1954. The sport was included in the
Pan-American Games for the first time in 1955. In 1962 the first open international
trampolining event took place in West Germany, after which the first world championship
was held in England in 1964. Immediately after the 1964 competition, officials from
participating countries met to form the International Trampoline Association, the
sport's worldwide governing body. Trampoline gymnastics debuted as an Olympic sport
in 2000.
A competition consists of one compulsory and one optional routine, with the winners
of those events performing another optional routine. Each routine is limited to 10
contacts with the trampoline, with competitors scored on difficulty, execution, and
form. But for most of time, trampoline is used as an entertainment for children and
family.

Trampoline newbies
Our family got our first trampoline this summer. I was a little nervous about it but
I soon realized there is SO much fun be had and so many new trampoline games to play. My
boys have already spent many hours on the trampoline this summer. Now that we have it I
can’t imagine our yard or a summer evening without it. The trampolines of today, with
their padded spring covers and fall-proof nets, are so much safer than the trampolines I
grew up on. It's a lot more fun for us parents knowing the kiddos are safe.
Trampoline safety tips
Even though trampolines are designed to be safer than they used to be doesn't
mean you still shouldn't take some precautions. Here are a few trampoline safety
tips for kids. Go over these rules with your little ones before they play and remind
them of the importance of being safe on the trampoline.
Adult supervision on a trampoline is always required.
Always use a safety net around your trampoline.
No gymnastic exercises or stunts, such as somersaults or flips.
Never allow children to bounce off the trampoline.
To prevent young children from getting on without supervision, do not leave a ladder
or chair near the trampoline.
Make sure your trampoline is on a clear, flat area free from potential hazards, such
as fences, hedges, trees, washing lines or other equipment.
Always carefully review the safety materials included with your trampoline.
