The MAT Tumbling/Trampoline Team traveled to Rock Island, Illinois for its first competitive USTA meet of the season on Nov. 8.

All three events, Power Tumbling, Olympic Trampoline, and Double Mini Trampoline, were held during one day in the Illinois border town. The team competed against both Iowa, Wisconsin, Indiana and Illinois teams and did very well for their first meet, with many of the team members experiencing their very first meet.

MAT's next event will be their home meet at the Marshallton Community College on Dec. 12-13. For more information about acrobatics and tumbling/trampoline or upcoming events, visit www.mattumblers.com.
