Fall 2026 Season Update
August 30 update: Registration is now open. A few notes for the fall:
1. Registration for fall is drop in only. The cost remains $60 per session. There is no limit on the amount of practices you can register for this Fall. If you would like to vault for two hours on one day, contact the pole vault club for approval. No discounts available.
2. You can only register for practices 8 weeks in advance.
3. Currently the registration software only allows you to register for one practice at a time. The developer is working on adding a feature for you to register for multiple drop-ins at once.
4. The software now allows you to manage make ups on your own as long as you cancel in advance. No need to email the pole vault club. Instructions on how to reschedule yourself can be found under MORE tab.
5. Guidance for practice groups:
- Beginners are those brand new to vaulting and those still working on learning the fundamentals (e.g. steps, drills).
- Intermediates are those athletes that are clearing bars and generally have vaulted for 6+ months. Athletes PRs have generally ranged from 7 feet to 12 feet.
- Advanced athletes are experienced vaulters who are able to analyze their own vaults and understand what they need to improve. Practices are more focused on video analysis and fine-tuning rather than learning fundamental stages of the vault.
Coaches individualize each practice to each athlete...the only thing that changes between groups are expectations and the peers you are vaulting with. If you have any questions at all, please ask a coach or email the pole vault club. Note: Moving up in practice groups will not improve the quality of instruction you receive from our coaches! Our coaches never gate keep any tips or knowledge or advice based on which group you are in. They are always focused on your success regardless of what practice group you attend.

All athletes must use the Heja app (download app and use NOVA Pole Vault Club code: VF-037622) as this is how our coaches communicate changes in schedule, announce drop in availability, etc with athletes.
NOTE: IF YOU ARE BRAND NEW TO POLE VAULT PLEASE EMAIL THE CLUB TO LET THEM KNOW YOU NEED AN INTRO CLASS BEFORE YOU REGISTER. INTRO CLASSES WILL BE CONDUCTED DURING A BEGINNER CLASS.
