Who are the Beantown Jumpers?

We are a competitive Double Dutch team from Boston, Milton, Quincy, Pembroke and Scituate.  Our team members include girls & boys who are in Grade 2 through high school.   Our mission is to share the sport of  Double Dutch with others while encouraging physical activity, teamwork and fun.  In conjunction with the Red Auerbach Youth Foundation we believe in the value of sports and athletics to the healthy development, both physical and emotional, of children. 

 

What’s a Demonstration/Workshop like?

We conduct fund-raising demonstrations and workshops.  We also perform at birthday parties and fairs.   Each event is a lot of energetic fun for everyone!  The team will perform a “Fusion” music presentation and then they will demonstrate the jumping styles necessary for competitions, including speed (2 minutes), compulsory (25 second dance routine) and a free-style (tricks) routine (1 minute).  After the presentation, group participation with the team is encouraged.   We will teach you how to jump in, turn the ropes and share some of our jump rope tricks!

 

Why are the Beantown Jumpers raising money?

We are performing to earn money for tournament and travel fees including expenses and uniforms needed for the teams.  The teams practice each week to train for local tournaments on Saturday, January 19, 2013, Saturday, March 2, 2013 & Saturday, March 30, 2013. The top teams winning at the local tournaments will advance to the State Tournament on Saturday, April 27, 2013.  The top teams from Massachusetts will then advance to a National Tournament. Beantown placed third this past year with our 7th grade doubles team, "Bombsquad". This was the highest place for a Massachusetts team!! 

                         
Who coaches the Beantown Jumpers?

Coach Patti Travers is the Wellness Director and Physical Education Specialist at Quincy Catholic Academy. Patti coaches at each program along with a tremendous group of volunteer parents of girls and boys who jump in the program. The parents are trained alongside Patti, as well as the jumpers, learning the ins and outs of the ropes.
