DIVE ON IN!
Diving is a type of sport you can have a lot of fun with and learn a lot about yourself. If your child enjoys jumping off the diving board, this would be a great sport for them.
You get to learn new tricks and improve the ones you already know. We have a great time in the summer with practices, meets, and play days.

Practices
There are 3 practices each day, Monday through Friday. We have a lot of children that do both swim and dive, so practice times are structured to help them be able to practice and compete in both sports. The practice schedule is as follows:
- 7:30- 8:15 am – Dive Only
- 8:15- 9:00 am – B team
- 9:00- 10:00 am – A team
Requirements
Diving is open to any child (18 & under as of June 1) of a Shades Cliff Pool member. We ask that your child is able to jump off the diving board and swim to the ladder on their own. Dive practice is in the well, so the children need to be comfortable in that part of the pool.
Meets
Dive meets are on Thursday afternoons. They run from the youngest age group to the oldest. The length of a meet varies depending on your child’s age. There is a County meet at the end of the season. More information will be emailed out closer to the meet.
