Registration
To participate
with the MIT Pole Vault Club, each memeber must be a USATF
member. The USATF membership is $30 for adults and $20 for
minors (under 18 years old) for the calendar year. Click here
to sign up for USATF membership. An athlete's USATF membership
and the club's USATF membership together provide a level of
insurance required by MIT to use the school's equipment. We
are USATF club #313.
On an athlete's
first day with the club each year, they must provide:
- Proof of USATF
membership (receipt or other print out)
- Completed member
sign up form (click here
for the form)
- Completed supplemental
form and waiver (click here
for the form)
Please Note: USATF
New England has recently strongly suggested that all vault
competitions and programs have attending athletes complete
the supplemental registration and waiver form in addition
to the club's regular forms. Please, complete it as much as
possible, and anything remaining can be filled in at the first
practice.
For scheduling
reasons, before your first practice, please contact Patrick
Barragán at <barragan

if you plan to join.
Fees
There is no registration
fee to join the MIT Pole Vault Club.
As the summer
has advanced, charging one flat price is much easier for us.
Our new price structure is as follows:
Single
Session: $20
If you can let
us know when and how often you plan to attend practices, we
will have a much easier time scheduling jump days.
With all volunteeer
coaches, the fees will go to covering costs of renting the
facilities and equpiment and benefiting track and field. You
will notice a very steep price decrease if you sign up for
multiple sessions. The reason for this is we can more easily
guarentee that we can cover costs if vaulters sign up for
almost the entire summer. So as long as we can cover costs,
any profit can just go back to track and field.
We are also always
willing to accept donations to the club. If that is something
you would like to do, please contact Patrick Barragán
at <barragan
at mit dot edu>.
Note: We understand
that some people who would very much like take this opportunity
may have financial hardships which would make them unable
to participate. If this is the case for you, please come and
talk to us. We place the highest value on having a fun and
safe vaulting environment and can probably work something
out that will benefit everyone.
