Thanksgiving Pole Vault Clinic
Join us as we continue to Fly High and Reach New Heights with our state of the art pole vault facility! Get ready for Indoor Season as you train in our facility that includes two indoor pits with mondo runways and soft boxes, an outdoor pit with a mondo runway, a sand pit, an assortment of gymnastics equipment, a vault machine, a rope, hurdles, and various weights and lifting equipment! New Heights Gym is hosting its 6th annual Thanksgiving Pole Vaulting Clinic with guest collegiate pole vault coaches Aaron James from University of South Alabama and Devin Rodriguez from University of Alabama. Your host coach from New Heights Gym is Shane LeLeux.



This clinic provides a great opportunity and environment for vaulters to jump indoors, be introduced to correct vaulting techniques and gymnastics, and work with and be seen by recruiting collegiate coaches. The coaches will discuss technique, vault drills, strength, and flexibility, and how to match the correct run, pole, and grip height to each vaulter’s ability.



We will have a selection of poles on hand; but if the vaulter has access to poles, please bring them to the clinic. ¼ Pyramid Spikes only!!!



The clinic will be broken up into three sessions:



Day 1 – Friday, November 28

4:00 PM Pole Vault Competition
