“Where Rubber Meets the Road

Where the rubber meets the road is the most important point for something, the moment of truth. An athlete can train all day, but the race is where the rubber meets the road and they’ll know how good they really are.






Monthly competition series for Vertical Edge Athletes

“Rubber Meets the Road” is a new practice meet series for our Vertical Edge Athletes. Practice meets will be held once a month. The purpose of these meets is to prepare our athletes for their High School competitive season.

“Coach, where do I put my standards?”
“What step should I run?”     “How do I warm up?”
    “What pole do I start on?”    “When do I change poles?”

This is the chance for our vaulters to learn how to take what they learn in the practice sessions and apply it in a competitive setting. These meets are competitions and I expect each athlete to come out and give it 100%.

These meets are built for learning and so it is okay to make mistakes. This is where we learn from them. The more mistakes made here, the fewer are made at the District Championships or the State Meet! I encourage all vaulters to attend each monthly competition as it provides a great setting where I can coach, guide and prepare them to be better competitors!

Come out and cheer or our athletes, 
we love all the loud support we can get!
