Highgate Diving Club

Ian Cunningham wants to share some exciting details about Highgate Diving Club with the sports community. Highgate Diving Club, established in 1928, is a revered club based in Gillingham, Kent. Ian and his team offer diving lessons for both children and adults at Medway Park Leisure Centre every Saturday morning. The focus is on both fun and skill development, welcoming everyone from beginners to those with previous diving experience.

Highgate Diving Club follows Swim England's Diving Award Scheme and provides lessons for individuals aged 6 to 18. Adults from 18 to 80+ are also encouraged to join. To participate, individuals need to be able to swim at least 25 metres, feel comfortable in deep water, and have a keen interest in diving.

Ian's team of expert coaches is available to train those with previous diving experience looking to get back into the sport. Sessions run for one hour on Saturday mornings with slots at 9:30 am, 10:30 am, and 11:30 am for adults. Ian invites anyone interested to secure their place by calling or texting him directly at 07770 887719.

Lessons take place at Medway Park Leisure Centre, which has a diving pit with two 1-metre springboards, a 3-metre springboard, and a 5-metre platform. The club prides itself on its members' shared passion for advancing the sport of diving. Ian believes everyone has the potential to reach a high standard in diving.
