Let's HOP on Board!

Our holiday program is designed to introduce and explore the exciting sport of Diving. This is an amazing opportunity to feel like an 'Olympian' and access the 3 metre boards and platforms, aimed at beginner and intermediate level divers.

No previous diving experience necessary, but children must be confident in deep water, as they will swim unaccompanied.

Ages 8-15 (6-7 year olds with special permission)

Divers will start in our dryland area on the second level of the indoor competition pool (in the spectator seating area).  Coaches will lead the divers in warm-up & conditioning exercises plus trampoline and dryboard work. They will take a short break for a snack and then they hit the pool! 

Example daily schedule:

9:30 - 9:35 Arrive and check-in
9:35 - 9:40 Introductions and rules
9:40-10:45 Dryland (for example: warm-up exercises, conditioning exercises, stretching, diving related drills and core work, trampoline and dryboard work, games and obstacles)
10:45-11:00 Break and small snack (snack not provided)
11:00-12:30 Water activities in the dive pool (side, boom, springboards, platforms)
12:30 Pick-up

Divers may pick and choose any number and combination of days that suit your schedule.
