Welcome to the SGS website where we aim to tell you about the club and perhaps inspire you with our skipping galleries and news.
We are a community skipping club, which regularly competes in BRSA organised competitions. The sport of Rope Skipping, also called Jump Rope in America, combines the skills of jumping, dancing and gymnastics. Skippers need to have speed, endurance and some gymnastic and musical ability to be a good all round performer.



We promote skipping as an activity for all as we feel it offers many health and additional benefits to both children and adults of all ages.
Improved cardio-vascular fitness
Increased muscular strength
Improved stamina levels
Improved flexibility
Improved co-ordination
Increase in social skills through meeting and working with others
Increased self-esteem through an easy to learn skill
Opportunities for fun, education and creativity.
It is also an activity open to many since no specialist equipment is required: just an inexpensive skipping rope and somewhere safe to swing it!



Our 2 top skippers have been selected to represent the UK at the World Youth Tournament, part of the World Championships, to be held in Loughborough in July.
Tiffany Branscombe and Georgia Toay of Seer Green were invited to team up with Ashleigh Caplin and Sam Cross of the Bouncers Skipping Club near Kingston, in order to produce the best possible team of the right ages, skills and commitment. They won bronze at the BRSA Team Competition on Saturday 27th March in the 12 to 14 age group but as the highest placed mixed team, they qualified easily for the World Youth Tournament. The team has been together less than 2 months, so they have had to work extremely hard to choreograph and perfect their routines.
The club is keen to hear from anyone who would like to sponsor the team or have any ideas for fundraising towards their expenses.
