       March 19 —— The call went out…..by word of mouth and digital electric air- waves…. and a talented and motivated young group of curious young athletes arrived at the Vault Barn on Saturday morning for the 2nd ‘LEARN HOW TO POLE VAULT DAY’…. presented by Flying Circus. The 26 young stars ..ranging from grades 4-10…could not be held back…as they took up the flight of faith all day long. Staff coaches…volunteer HS pole vaulters were on hand to move our event up a few more levels. The future of pole vault has begun and we all would like to thank all parents and coaches for sending us some very inspired student/athletes. Yes… It was a glance at the future!!!!! More to come ………..

    ***********************

            We are proud to announce our 2016 INDOOR COACH of the YEAR AWARD to one special person… BEN SIMONET .

             It’s hard to explain the impact that Coach Ben Simonet has had on so many young athletes here at Warwick Flying Circus and especially at The Armory Flying Circus in busy New York City. Ben has modeled the perfect coach/athlete positive influence and his developing of the Pole Vault Event in New York City has been inspiring to everyone he works with. His knowledge and his patience are his strongest traits and and his humility is contagious. He was the 3-Time Belgium Pole Vault Champion..with a PR of 17′ 5.5″ after taking up this event late in his career. He became a gymnastic and physical education teacher and continues to inspire all of us here. CONGRATULATIONS COACH SIMONET !!!!!!!!!!!!!
            FLYING CIRCUS ……………CROSS-the-BRIDGE with us.
