Our school is too poor, where can i go to practice high jump?

I run track for my school but because of a lack of funds we hardly have any equipment. There is no way that i can practice high jump at our school and i need to find a place where i can.|||It depends on where you live. If you are in a city there are other schools that own pits and will let you practice at their site one or two days each week.





If you do not live within a reasonable distance to another facility there isn't much you can do for jump practice.





You can do drills and practice your approach without the jump.|||you can try asking a local college if you can use their facilities (through your coach) and if that's not possible, there are drills you can do without actually jumping ~ if you have access to a pool (YMCA, Boys Club, etc) there are also drills you can do in the pool for high jumping . . . when I was in HS, we were forced to use gym mats with tire inner tubes between them to land on and the HJ bars were triangular and metal ~ OUCH
