About the Club

Kangaroo Track Club (or Kangaroo Athletics LLC) is a USATF registered track and field club in Apple Valley, MN, where high jumpers and triple jumpers train all year. REAL jumpers have no "off season" - if the athletes are not competing, they are working on improving their physical abilities, technique, and looking forward to the next competition season (club, school or both).  This club was founded by Hugo Munoz, a two-time Olympian in the high jump and holder of the Peruvian national high jump record - 7'6 1/2" (see Roster and Coach).  Members of this club will be coached directly by Coach Munoz.                                                                                                                                     

Our Mission

To help the athletes understand the nature of high jumping and triple jumping in a positive and fun working environment.  More importantly, through coaching with positive reinforcement, athletes learn the values of discipline, hard work, leadership, and respect for themselves and others.  We teach values that athletes can take away from the track and use in life, as we teach athletes how to be a true champion on and off the track.

*Please note:  Athletes from all sports are welcome to attend as improved jumping ability translates into many sports (basketball and volleyball).

Winter Practice*

Location: Eagan HS & Apple Valley HS

* Practice location will depended on the weather and the type of workout that we will be doing.
