Hello, everyone! Today, I’m excited to shine a spotlight on one of Spain’s rising stars in athletics—Gemma Tamarit, a talented young pole vaulter whose dedication and progress have caught the attention of fans and coaches alike. Let’s take a closer look at her performances at the Spanish Indoor Under-18 Championships in 2023 and 2024, and celebrate her journey as an emerging force in the sport.
In 2023, Gemma entered the national indoor competition as the athlete to watch. At just 16 years old, she was already ranked number one going into the championship, holding an impressive personal best of 1.71 meters. Confident and focused, she aimed to surpass that with a bold attempt at 1.76 meters. Though she fell short on her final attempt and didn’t set a new personal record, her performance reinforced her status as one of the most promising young pole vaulters in Spain.
What’s remarkable about Gemma isn’t just her athletic talent, but her resilience and determination to improve. That became even clearer in the 2024 Spanish Indoor Under-18 Championships, where she returned stronger, more experienced, and more focused than ever. The competition was tougher, and the stakes higher—but Gemma rose to the challenge. She secured third place overall with a solid vault of 3.50 meters—a big improvement over the previous year. She also made a daring second attempt at 3.60 meters, a height that might have seemed out of reach just a year earlier. Though she didn’t clear it, the attempt was a clear sign of how far she’d come in just twelve months.
Watching Gemma compete is witnessing passion in motion. Her technique, composure under pressure, and steady progress speak volumes about her work ethic and potential. These championships marked important milestones in her career and set the stage for what’s to come as she prepares for the 2025 indoor season. With every vault, she’s getting closer to breaking even higher barriers.
