A YOUNG trampoline star has continued his success after taking part in the National Championships.
Ebbë, an 11-year-old from Basingstoke, recently came 12th place in the National Championships of trampolining in Sheffield where he was the the youngest competitor.
His love for trampolining started after visiting Flip Out in Basingstoke that has over 50 trampolines and is also where son of former professional footballer, Dave Kitson, similarly ignited his love for trampolining at a young age.

After visiting Flip Out Ebbë was inspired to join a local club to further his skills, The Washindi Trampoline Club, and after only being part of the club for a year, he took part in a regional competition which led to him being crowned the Southern Champion.
Ebbë said: “I was really excited when I became the southern junior champion and got to go to the national finals in Sheffield. I’ve only been trampolining for a year so when I came twelfth I couldn't believe it. Next year I want to win the whole competition so I can achieve my ambition of going to the Olympics and winning a medal for Great Britain.”
The talented boy also added that he loves going to Flip Out to practice his back flips and meet up with his friends.
