Camp Program
The UCLA Pole Vault Camp is open to vaulters of all ability levels, including beginners - no experience necessary! Our staff will feature both current and former UCLA vaulters, led by pole vault coach Anthony Curran. Instruction includes vault drills such as high bar, rings, ropes and scaffold vaults. For most vaulting sessions, the camp will concentrate on the most basic technique from shorter runs and smaller poles. There will be lectures on strength and conditioning for all levels, as well as video analysis and discussion sessions. Poles are provided, but you are encouraged to bring your own, if possible. Each camper will receive a camp t-shirt and a certificate of completion. Join us this summer and be part of the UCLA Pole Vault tradition!
