Pole vault is a track and field event where athletes use a long, flexible pole, typically made of fiberglass or carbon fiber, to vault over a high bar. The sport requires a combination of speed, strength, agility, and technique. Athletes sprint down a runway, plant the pole into a box, and propel themselves upwards, aiming to clear the bar without dislodging it. Pole vault has been part of the Olympic Games since 1896.https://sportsmatik.com/sports/pole-vault
