National and International level competition is one of the fundamental goals of our divers and of the Club, requiring significant dedication on the part of the divers and their families. Below is a description of the

Dive Calgary
has added an additional team for those junior athletes who have the
commitment and dedication for competitive diving, and who need further
development of the basic diving fundamentals. Our pre-competitive,
developmental team divers typically range in age from eight to twelve
years and have had some basic introductory diving instruction. The goal
of these divers, who train three to five times per week, two hours per
session, is to institute proper technique and to develop competitive
diving skills on the 1 and 3m springboards and some of the platforms.
