Vulcan Vault 2025
Details
The Vulcan Vault is a youth to professional meet that will be held at the Pelham Civic Center in Pelham, AL on July 12. This is a USATF Sanctioned event. After the growth of the last 2 years and the heat that is common in Alabama in the summer, we wanted to make a change so the event is more comfortable and more spectator friendly. Last year's Vulcan Vault had huge additions with the lights and music from Vault Entertainment and we will again have that, but every athlete will get to have the Elite level experience.
Time & Location
July 12, 2025, 8:00 AM - 10:00 PM
500 Amphitheater Rd, Pelham, AL 35124, USA
Format of the Event
The Vulcan Vault will start with the lowest height athletes and build up to our highest. The groups are mixed gender by season's best mark except for the emerging elite and the elite sections which will be separated by genders. We seed by season's best as they are the best indicator that we have found to make sure that the athletes are in the correct section for the competition. Please put an honest mark on your registration and not one just to win a section as we are instituting cut off bars after 1' above the highest mark entered for that section. Maximum of 16 athletes per section.
Athletes
The Vulcan Vault is for all ages and skill levels. We are limiting the meet's entries so that no section is over 16 athletes so we make sure that the athletes have the best chance at clearing PRs. We will make the progression of each section try to hit as many PRs as we can while still staying within the parameters of USATF and World Athletics rules. We are expecting a huge turn out as we sold out last year and look to sell out again this year. If you sign up and you jump higher than you registered you can always change your season's best mark up until July 4th. So feel reassured that you aren't locked into a height cause you signed up early.
Competition Awards!
The awards for this competition are truly unique and reflect the spirit of excellence and ironclad work ethic required of our sport. Each award is handcrafted, making it a one-of-a-kind symbol of achievement and dedication. Designed to stand out, these awards are more than trophies; they are works of art that celebrate the passion, hard work, and resilience of every athlete. By offering something handmade and distinctive, Vulcan Vault hopes to honor the individuality and effort each competitor brings to this event, ensuring that their accomplishments are recognized in a way that is as extraordinary as their journey.
