Members of the Tenterfield Tornadoes Skipping Team took on Australia and the world at the recent 2008 Australian skipping titles on the Gold Coast.
During a successful weekend, they secured an Australian record and an Australian title silver medal.
Georgiana Chawner continued her skipping successes from the New South Wales and Queensland championships by placing second in the under-eight individual division.
Jasmine Duffield secured her Australian record for performing the most number of triple-unders within a minute in her 14-year-old age group, breaking her previous record of 83-and-a-half with a score of 84.
Jasmine said she was happy to break her previous Australian record, but thought that it might not stand for long.
"It's good to have the record, but I think that it will be broken next year. The girls coming up are really good," she said.
Tenterfield Tornadoes coach Peter Hickey said the team performed excellently and successfully in individual and team events.
"This year's competition was the biggest, with a large number of new teams, including teams from Singapore, and over 350 skippers participating," Mr Hickey said.
The Tenterfield Tornadoes fielded a team in the 11 to 12 year old division and in the 13B division.
Mr Hickey said the 11 to 12 year old team, comprising Sophie Cooper, Phoebe Saunders, Georgiana Chawner and Stacey Hayne, performed well, finishing a very close fifth overall out of 16 teams.
He said that the 13 B team, comprising Eliza Cooper, Lauren Blaker, Chelaine Blaker, Amy Hill and Jasmine Duffield, also performed well, finishing fourth out of eight teams in its category.
Judith Hayne, Stacey's mother, said she was proud of the girls' achievement over the weekend and commended Mr Hickey for his commitment as coach.
"They've all done really well, and I'm very proud of the girls and of Peter," she said.
"There's a lot of discipline they had to master for the competition and it is a wonderful thing that they have been able to achieve such great results after only 15 months of training."
Ms Duffield said that the training schedule to prepare for the titles had been demanding, with sessions lasting up to three hours four times a week.
