Trampolining at Millfield provides a challenging and enjoyable programme for beginners and experienced trampolinists. Senior students can choose it as a games option both recreationally and competitively. Juniors take part in addition to their games programme but the timetable allows for this.

Millfield has two competitive trampolines with 6mm x 6mm and a 6mm x 4mm beds. An overhead rig is available for learning somersaults and more complex skills. Trampolining has three coaches; one Level 4, one Level 2 and one Level 1. 

We enter the National Schools Competition as individuals and teams where we achieve regular success. In the last five years we have won the U15 Boys Elite team national title, been runners up in the U15 Girls Novice team and third in the U19 Intermediate Girls. Last year, medals were won by both individuals and teams at the South West Schools competition. We also enter local trampolining club competitions.
