3rd Annual Gill Athletics Factory Vault

The Gill Athletics Factory Vault is a chance for the whole family to come out for a great, day long pole vault event at the home of Pacer brand poles in Champaign, IL. There are several open competitions to accomodate a variety of vaulter skill levels, as well as an Elite competition with some of the best vaulters in the nation.

This year we're hosting a two-part event. Competitors can register for one or both days. Parents, coaches, and other inquiring minds are welcome and encouraged to attend the Symposium on Day 1, as well as spectating on Day 2.



Day 1, July 2nd
Pole Vault Symposium

Dedicated to all things pole vaulting the symposium is a great way to learn more about the vault. Included is a Factory Tour, Q+A with elite vaulters, talks from Gill Engineers, Collegiate coaches, and elite vaulters. All this is followed by a BBQ social where you can get up close and personal with speakers and vaulters from the day.

Day 2, July 3rd
Vault Competition

The main event! Last year around 100 vaulters competed over the course of day. Multiple board runways and several flights keep things moving quickly and there is also an elite competition for the best of the best. DJ music, concessions, souveniers, autographs with Team Pacer, a pole raffle, and much more!
