Jonathan Moore is following in his Coach and Father Aston Moore’s footsteps as a Jumper of immense talent. Aston collected numerous Triple Jump medals, including two Commonwealth Bronze’s and three AAA’s titles before Jonathan was even born. Jonathan comes from a talented sporting family, his cousin Justin Hoyt currently plays for Arsenal in the Premiership.

Jonathan’s talent extends to both Long Jump and Triple Jump, his first success being the English School’s title in 1999 and Gold in the same event in 2000. 2000 was a great year for Jonathan; he won the U17 Championships in both events and the School’s International and Commonwealth Youth Games in the Triple Jump. He won the English Schools’ title and AAA U20 Gold in Long Jump in 2001 and grabbed Triple Jump Gold at the World Youth Championships, after getting Silver at the European Juniors.

Jonathan equalled the UK Junior Long Jump record with 7.98m in an International match against France and his first 8.00m jump came in 2002 when he pushed the British Junior Record out to 8.03m in Loughborough. This made him the first British Junior to jump eight metres. He retained his AAA U20 title, but the 2002 season was cut short due to a knee injury.

He recovered far more quickly than expected and returned to competition twelve months later in June 2003 reclaiming his standing as Britain’s top Junior Long Jumper. With his Triple Jump career on hold he took the AAA Indoor Long Jump Silver medal in 2004. He prepared for the outdoor season by focusing his training towards qualification for the Olympic Games in the summer. In the spring he attended an intense warm weather training camp in Cyprus with his training coach Aston and fellow jumper Ashia Hansen.
