ANYONE can join our team! Currently, our
youngest team members are in 3rd grade and our oldest are in
college. We practice every Tuesday and Thursday night from 6:00 to
7:30 during the school year. A few of us take gymnastics and tumbling classes in an
effort to "better" our jump rope skills. It is fun to jump rope on
your feet, but it's REALLY FUN to jump
rope UPSIDEDOWN!
Kids.....don't try this at
home!
Performances cost $125.00 and can last anywhere
from 10 minutes to 1 hour. If you book us for more than one
performance in a day, the cost for each performance is reduced.
Please contact Coach Jeff at lighthall@charter.net for
booking.

We are the SHASTA SKIPPERS
Meet Coach
Jeff!
Coach Jeff Lighthall is a 4th grade
teacher and physical education instructor at Rother Elementary
School in Redding, California. Coach Jeff started the "Shasta
Skippers" almost 25 years ago after seeing a jump rope
performance.
It's hard to find a more fit athlete than
a jump roper. And you don't need a lot of money for this
sport.....just a jumprope and a driveway!
Please
contact Coach Jeff at lighthall@charter.net
if you would like to schedule a performance.
