MAT competes at Melcher-Dallas

Marshalltown Area Tumbling/Trampoline recently competed in a one-day USTA/AAU Power tumbling meet in Melcher-Dallas.

The event was a smaller meet that focused more on the lower levels of competition.

“This was an excellent meet for our lower level athletes to have some fun and gain experience to build confidence with there skills,” head coach Ron Brooks said.
