Abstract
A trampoline includes a sheet resiliently supported and tensioned by a substantially rigid frame through means of spring-like members positioned about the perimeter of the sheet. The spring-like members are connected to the sheet through means of a compressive fastener adapted to receive a turned-over edge of the sheet. The turned-over edge of the sheet defines a channel in which a filler, such as a cable, is placed. The fastener compressively retains the turned-over edge together with the cable.
