Also the Acro Ropers sponsors a recreation program to inspire novice skippers to develop their talents.
Our Sport
While everyone has skipped or watched kids jump rope, few realize that skipping or jump rope is also practiced at a competitive level. Serious jump rope athletes train rigorously year-round. Jumping rope takes immense strength, endurance, focus, and patience, and can be much more than a schoolyard game of chanting rhymes.
Competitive Team
The Brampton Acro Ropers have been a competitive jump rope team for over 25 years. In recent years, we have travelled throughout Canada and Internationally to attend competitions and elite jump rop workshops. The team of 20+ athletes is led by our accomplished coaches Heather, Katlhleen, Erika and Sarah.
Rec Program
BAR's recreational program is a non-competitive, recreational skipping program for children 6 to 13 years of age. The program is taught by one of our parent coaches, as well as parent volunteers. In a fun, non-competitive class, kids are given the opportunity to learn some skipping "skills" with single ropes as well as learning to skip double dutch.

The Brampton Acro Ropers are actively involved in the community, promoting fitness awareness at local schools and community events.
