Summer Club Huge Success!

Summer 2012 has been very rewarding for our vaulters. We participated in the USATF National Junior Olympic series, as well as our Rusty Shealy Pole Vault Summer Series, of meets. Our "PR Bell" was being rung quite a lot... with huge smiles.  "PR" in track and field terms means "Personal Record" or "Personal Best". I am so proud of each and every one of our athletes.  We look forward to having a great fall/winter of training to put the odds in your favor for next season.

"Pole vaulters who want to win, do the ordinary things better than anyone else.  They do their conditioning and weight room workouts.  They do their vault specific workouts and technique training.  They do the ordinary things day in and day out.  They win because they are willing to work harder and smarter than the competition."  
- Rusty Shealy

Summer Pole Vault Camps.
If an all day camp works best for you, we offer one, two or three day camps.  Some athletes travel monthly for our camps, when weekly clinic times do not work with their hectic schedule.  The all day format gives ample time to disect your vault and help you to understand why things work the way they do. For more information or registration, CLICK HERE.
