Cowley pole vault clinic to be held in June

Cowley head track and field coach Mark Phillips is hosting a pole vault clinic June 1-4 at the Cowley Track Complex located at 230 Pierce St., just east of Cowley Ballpark on South Summit St. The clinic will run each day from 1-4 p.m.

In 25 years of coaching the pole vault, Mark Phillips has coached 49 NJCAA All-Americans, nine national champions and two national record holders including 2010 national indoor champion, Katie Gillmore and 2008 national indoor champion, David Starnes. He is USA Track & Field Level II certified in the jumps. Phillips has been involved with the pole vault for 35 years.

The Pole Vault Clinic is designed to help beginning as well as experienced vaulters learn to vault safely and correctly using technique drills and routines. Participants will be taught proper pole carry, run mechanics, plant timing, take-off and bar clearance. There will be an emphasis on approach, plant and take-off. Pole selection and proper training will be discussed. Video analysis will be used to help participants learn.

Pre-registration may be completed any time prior to May 26 by calling Mark Phillips at (620) 442-1594.
