Great sporting event Sunday January 31, 2021 at Tourcoing (North) : the Lille Metropolis Athletics is organizing the very first edition of the Why in Or, stage of the “Perche Elite Tour” circuit. Among the participants: Olympic champion Renaud Lavillenie.
The best pole vaulter in the world
And the French will not be the only pole vault star present since the competition is the best national and international pole vaulter!
Among the participants are Katerina Stefanidi (GRE), reigning Olympic champion, but also Christopher Nilsen (USA), Katie Nageotte (USA), Valentin Lavillenie (FRA) and Holly Bradshow (GBR).
All at the Léo Lagrange sports complex, usually the scene of volleyball matches which will be transformed for this unique event.
Of course, the frustration remains as the event will take place behind closed doors. But good news: you can follow him live on the Weo channel as well as on Facebook.
