with Cliff Rovelto, Kansas State University Director of Cross Country and Track & Field;
USA Track & Field Master Coach - Jumps; 7x Team USA staff member; 2001 U.S. Track Coaches Association Women's Outdoor National Coach of the Year, 5x Midwest Region Coach of the Year; 2001 USTCA Women's Outdoor National Coach of the Year; 2x Big 12 Conference Women's Outdoor Coach of the Year

Get the the technical skills and knowledge you need to create championship-caliber high jumpers.

Using a easy to follow and extremely detailed approach, Cliff Rovelto, the long time Director of Cross Country and Track and Field at Kansas State University, delves into the basics of the high jump from laying out the approach to safe clearance and landing. His instruction includes understanding center of mass, centripetal force, inertia and momentum, and applying their relationships to running mechanics, strength and posture.

Beginning with the basic theories of the high jump, Coach Rovelto explains that producing pressure into the ground will translate into more vertical velocity - the key to high jumping. Using drills for the first three steps and moving to the actual take-off itself, Rovelto offers not only the keys to a consistent and controlled run-up, but also introduces five drills to develop the proper approach.

Coach Rovelto explains how to properly set out your approach and measure your marks in terms that make this easy to do for any coach or jumper. He emphasizes the need to run a tighter and faster radius, have more lean, apply pressure against the ground, and have a greater range of motion-this converts vertical velocity into horizontal velocity which translates into a better jump.

The takeoff is the key to a successful jump, Rovelto explains how to teach the take-off, and the drills to re-enforce successful take-off form. He also explains teaching the single-arm, one and a half-arm, and double arm take-off.

You will receive an in-depth explanation into flight mechanics and how to teach a safe-landing, including drills to reinforce these concepts. You'll also get ideas on meet strategy and how to set up your practices for the greatest efficiency and benefit of your jumpers.

This video is an outstanding tool for coaches who wish to simplify one of track and field's most technical events and who want to develop great high jumpers. With demonstrations by 2011 World Champion Jesse Williams and other top jumpers, you'll get one of the clearest explanations of techniques available in an instructional video. Both beginner and veteran coaches will appreciate the wealth of knowledge provided by one of the top high jump coaches in the nation!

with Tim Reilly

This information-packed presentation features one of the county's most prolific high school pole vault coaches, Tim Reilly.

Coach Reilly outlines the realities of coaching an 11 week high school season and the challenges this poses for successfully coaching the pole vault event. He touches on recruiting the best possible athletes for the event, having a system in place to simultaneously work with experienced and beginning vaulters, and coaching with safety at the forefront of every aspect of the event.

Reilly breaks his classroom discussion into six segments:

  • An 8-phase Safety Protocol - This information is at the heart of the pole vault coach's certification program Reilly was instrumental in developing in Washington.
  • Metronome Principal - A clear and easy way to understand the physics of the pole vault.
  • Four Foundations of Success - An invaluable narrated film analysis of the four fundamentals for success in the pole vault--approach, plant, take-off and follow through.
  • Team Training - Learn essential strategies for daily team training including managing rainy days, injury days and windy days.
  • Meet Preparation - Includes a quiz to help athletes with pole selection and pole management at meets.
  • Common Bad Habits - Learn to correct four of the most common "bad habits" for vaulters.
  • Practice Schedule - Reilly breaks down the 11-week season into a four cycle flow. With each cycle, he presents an example of a complete week of lesson plans for his practice routine. Reilly also includes how he peaks his athletes for the championship phase of the season.
On the track, Reilly demonstrates more than 75 drills and variations for teaching and coaching the pole vault. These drills are broken into the following sections:
  • Approach Drills (18 drills). Progress from simple walking single leg drills and sequencing through a progression that ends with a complete approach with the pole drop into a sliding box plant.
  • Plant Drills and Plant Sequence Drills (10). Plant drills begin at the most elementary level in the sand and progress to a 3-step with 1/4 swing. The plant sequence drills include a 4-drill teaching sequence.
  • Take-Off Drills (8). These drills are designed to give the pole vaulter the feeling of a long jump style take-off and focus on getting the athlete to transition the horizontal approach velocity to a vertical take-off impulse.
  • Follow Through Drills (6). This drill progression is designed to assist the vaulter in building the sensation of a stretched out and firm body position when transitioning from the take off into the pre-swing position.
  • Swing Drills (7). This drill progression begins on the hi-bar and rings before progressing into the swing and turn on a straight, then bending pole.
  • Strength Development Drills (27). Reilly's pole vault specific strength development is designed to be carried out predominately on the track rather spending a great deal of time in the weight room.
Tim Reilly has coached thousands of pole vaulters in his career. Now you can benefit from Reilly's rich history and success in coaching the pole vault.

TD-03742G: with Tim Reilly

This information-packed presentation features one of the county's most prolific high school pole vault coaches, Tim Reilly.

Coach Reilly outlines the realities of coaching an 11 week high school season and the challenges this poses for successfully coaching the pole vault event. He touches on recruiting the best possible athletes for the event, having a system in place to simultaneously work with experienced and beginning vaulters, and coaching with safety at the forefront of every aspect of the event.

Reilly breaks his classroom discussion into six segments:

  • An 8-phase Safety Protocol - This information is at the heart of the pole vault coach's certification program Reilly was instrumental in developing in Washington.
  • Metronome Principal - A clear and easy way to understand the physics of the pole vault.
  • Four Foundations of Success - An invaluable narrated film analysis of the four fundamentals for success in the pole vault--approach, plant, take-off and follow through.
  • Team Training - Learn essential strategies for daily team training including managing rainy days, injury days and windy days.
  • Meet Preparation - Includes a quiz to help athletes with pole selection and pole management at meets.
  • Common Bad Habits - Learn to correct four of the most common "bad habits" for vaulters.
  • Practice Schedule - Reilly breaks down the 11-week season into a four cycle flow. With each cycle, he presents an example of a complete week of lesson plans for his practice routine. Reilly also includes how he peaks his athletes for the championship phase of the season.
On the track, Reilly demonstrates more than 75 drills and variations for teaching and coaching the pole vault. These drills are broken into the following sections:
  • Approach Drills (18 drills). Progress from simple walking single leg drills and sequencing through a progression that ends with a complete approach with the pole drop into a sliding box plant.
  • Plant Drills and Plant Sequence Drills (10). Plant drills begin at the most elementary level in the sand and progress to a 3-step with 1/4 swing. The plant sequence drills include a 4-drill teaching sequence.
  • Take-Off Drills (8). These drills are designed to give the pole vaulter the feeling of a long jump style take-off and focus on getting the athlete to transition the horizontal approach velocity to a vertical take-off impulse.
  • Follow Through Drills (6). This drill progression is designed to assist the vaulter in building the sensation of a stretched out and firm body position when transitioning from the take off into the pre-swing position.
  • Swing Drills (7). This drill progression begins on the hi-bar and rings before progressing into the swing and turn on a straight, then bending pole.
  • Strength Development Drills (27). Reilly's pole vault specific strength development is designed to be carried out predominately on the track rather spending a great deal of time in the weight room.
Tim Reilly has coached thousands of pole vaulters in his career. Now you can benefit from Reilly's rich history and success in coaching the pole vault.
