Girls ___' = Boys ___'

Unread postby tigervaulter727 » Wed Apr 11, 2007 10:33 pm

Hello!

I was just wondering...

Is there a chart out there somewhere for what height cleared for girls equates to what height cleared for guys?

For example:
A girl clears 10', this is comparable to what height cleared by a boy?

Thank you!

Hey,

I was asking my coach about this! I am currently a 10 foot girl vaulter, and I asked him what he thinks I would be if I was a guy, and he told me I would probably be a 13 foot vaulter. BUT, it might depend on certain physical characteristics, but that's just what he said.
PR: 10'8" (so far!)

I knew we had this conversation before. I was thinking 2 years ago and it was about 2.5 :)

It took me awhile to find it though, so I am certainly not mad that you guys didn't.
