Although our vision includes having a Provincial Vaulting Organization in every province and territory in Canada, this is not yet the case. If you are interested in vaulting and you live in a province that does not yet have such an organization, we would love to hear from you. Please email us at [email protected] and let us know of your interest, to what extent you think you might be able to be involved, and/or if you know of anyone who could help by being involved in your area. We look forward to hearing from you :)
