Highlight videos, coach connections, scholarship guidance, and a step-by-step recruiting roadmap to land your spot.
BUILT BY AN ATHLETE, FOR ATHLETES
CP Athletics was founded by Chadd Pierce — a former All-ACC Decathlete and Pole Vaulter at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and two-year team captain.
After over a decade of coaching at every level, Chadd built CP Athletics with one purpose: to help every athlete unlock their full potential — in sport and in life.
We don’t just build better pole vaulters or faster sprinters. We develop disciplined, confident, mentally tough competitors who are ready for whatever comes next.
OUR STORY
POLE VAULT POLES
Rent, buy, or exchange poles through our Team Pacer Club partnership.
Pole Rentals & Purchases
Finding the right pole shouldn’t hold you back. CP Athletics offers pole vault pole rentals and purchases through our Team Pacer Club Sponsorship — giving athletes access to competition-quality poles at every stage of development.
- Rent poles for practice and competition
- Purchase new poles at competitive pricing
- Expert guidance on pole selection based on weight, grip height, and ability
- Access to our inventory of 150+ training poles during sessions
Pole Exchange Program
Outgrowing your pole shouldn’t mean starting from scratch. When you purchase poles through CP Athletics, you can trade your current pole in for a discounted upgrade — keeping your progression on track without the full cost of a new pole every year.
How it works:
- Buy a pole through CP Athletics
- When you’re ready to move up, trade it back
- Pay only the difference in pole pricing + $100 + shipping
- Your traded pole joins our training inventory, helping other athletes train
You grow as a vaulter. We grow our inventory. Every athlete benefits.
