Shealy Athletics Pole Vault Camp, with Sandi Morris

Join us on Friday, November 24th with Special Guest Coach, Sandi Morris. Sandi holds the USA Outdoor Pole Vault Record at 16' 4.75" (5.0m).  She was also the 2016 Olympic and 2017 World Championships Silver Medalist. I am very proud of Sandi! She is from Greenville HS (2010) and is a super role model for everyone following her through our program.  This camp will fill up fast!

We will also have world renowned pole vault coach David F. Johnston of Lees McRae College, Banner Elk, NC.  "Coach DJ" is considered the best on the planet at setting up the pole vault approach run. Coaches from beginning to world class, as well as pole vaulters of all levels from all over the globe consult with him and use his six step chart to maximize speed on the runway.
