SkipTime
SkipTime, Calgary’s first jump rope club, was founded in 2010. The club ran a recreational program for three years, and a team competed Provincially. In 2013, SkipTime became a non-profit organization, Calgary Jump Rope Club (SkipTime). We are grateful for the groundwork of the founder and original board members’ efforts to help us grow to where we are today - the largest rope skipping club in Alberta, with world-class athletes & coaches.
