We're hosting A Camp In Cartersville Georgia
We welcome vaulters of all levels. It doesn't matter if you've never touched a pole before or if you're a post-collegiate vaulter trying to make it to the next level, I'd love to be a part of your journey!
My goal with these camps is to provide you with the tools that will help you vault higher.
Coaches Camp
** We're also hosting a 3-hour coaches clinic spread out over 3 days of our camp. The idea is to spend an hour prior to each session giving coaches the tools to help with not only vaulting, but coaching! Following the coach's session, coaches are welcome to stick around to watch the camp to see how we put into practice what we discussed!
We encourage questions during the coaching sessions or during breaks! We do however kindly ask that you refrain from coaching during the camp.
We focus on
- The technical development of your unique vault.
- Pole vault specific gymnastics work
- Speed development
- Pole Vault Specific Strength training
- The psychological side of the pole vault
- and most importantly, having fun! We are running with a stick to jump over a stick.
Camp Objective: Primarily, we want all the participants to have a great time while expanding their fund of pole vault knowledge. The camp is designed for coaches and vaulters of all ages and skill levels.
Facilities: Camp will be held at Flicky Stick Pole Vault in Cartersville, GA. Every effort will be made by the hosts to make your experience fun and rewarding. We have a large selection of poles that will be available for everyone to use. However, campers are welcome to bring their poles with which they prefer to jump on.
