If you think you'd like to join a recreational or competitive jump rope team, then congratulations! You're about to enter one of the most exciting, challenging and beneficial sports in existence. 

The world of jump rope is very supportive and welcoming. At tournaments, members of competing teams often spend time socializing with each other, encouraging each other, and comparing notes and ideas on how to improve. 

To find a team near you, you might try a Google search for something like "Jump rope team near me." If that doesn't turn up any results, you can try contacting the governing body for the sport in your country.
