Last month, athletes from Cornwall’s Air Gliders Trampoline Club attended the second Ontario Cup in Ottawa. Cornwall was represented by Audrey Millette, Cait- lin McInnis, Arianne Pilon, Laura Lebel, Kasper Furo and Schuyler Schellenberg. I am very proud of the progress our athletes are showing,” said Jean Juneau. Schellenberg, the most advanced tram- polinist in the club, had a great perfor- mance, receiving the second highest score of his level and earning the silver medal. Millette also had a very good performance, being her only second experience at tram- poline competition. She earned herself a fourth place ribbon. A minimum score with attendance at two out of three competi- tions is required to attend Provincial Cham- pionships. Schuyler, Audrey, and Laura have achieved their official qualifications to at- tend the Provincial Championships in April. Kasper, Arianne and Caitlin will focus on the upcoming 3 rd Cup in March to attain their qualifications for Provincials.
