German University Trampolining Championships 2025: top sporting performances in Kassel

In addition to the official college championships, there were also side events for alumni, who complemented the diverse field of participants with their great athletic dedication and nostalgic spirit.

In the individual competitions, the gymnasts first performed the required compulsory routine P8 from the DTB exercise book before demonstrating their full range of skills in a freestyle routine. The top 15 athletes qualified for the finals, where their scores from the preliminary round were carried over. After the compulsory and freestyle routines, the following students emerged victorious in the final rounds:

Charmaine Buchholz (University of Mainz) secured the title of “German Collegiate Champion in Individual Trampoline Gymnastics” with 100.6 points. Michael Gladjuk (University of Stuttgart) became the German Collegiate Champion in Individual Trampoline Gymnastics with 98.3 points.

The team and synchronized competitions were also highly exciting: mixed teams and pairs impressively demonstrated how precision, a sense of rhythm, and teamwork can be combined on the trampoline. The synchronized competitions, in which two gymnasts performed their jump routines simultaneously, provided spectators with spectacular sights and were one of the highlights of the competition day. The winning pairs came from Berlin, Münster, and Leipzig.

Ugo Finnendahl and Josef Janenz (TU Berlin) were crowned German collegiate champions in trampoline gymnastics (synchronized) with 107.1 points. In the women’s division, Franzina von Häfen and Lara Materne (WG Münster) won the title with 117.4 points. Among the mixed pairs, Carlotta Amedick and Paul Kammer (WG Leipzig) took the top spot with 117.84 points.

The organizing team from University Sports Kassel ensured that everything ran smoothly, created a professional competition atmosphere, and provided ideal conditions for athletes and spectators alike.

With thrilling finals, an atmospheric awards ceremony, and plenty of applause, the day came to a close—a day that once again demonstrated just how vibrant and high-performing university sports in Germany are.

The University of Kassel looks back with pride on a successful event—and many participants have already announced that they will return next year for the next German University Trampoline Championships. The event also received high praise from the participants—a clear sign that Kassel is not only an excellent location for sports but also for teacher education.
