Join The Geelong College Recreation Centre's Learn-to-Dive program and dive into a world of excitement! Whether you're a beginner looking to learn the ropes or a developing diver aiming to improve your skills, this program has got you covered.
Led by Diving Australia accredited coaches, the diving sessions take place from Monday to Friday and cater to participants aged 8 and above. With an affiliation with Diving Victoria, you can rest assured that you'll be in good hands throughout your diving journey.
The program offers various levels to suit divers of all abilities. Starting off with the Novice Bronze level, beginners will dive into a 60-minute class packed with fun and engaging activities. During this stage, divers will focus on building a strong foundation, developing body awareness, and mastering positions. They'll have a blast learning skills such as front and back entries from 1m, pike entries from 3m, and even basic hurdles.
Once divers have built a solid foundation, they can progress to the Silver squad. Here, they'll continue to develop their skills and further enhance their diving techniques. Participants in the Silver squad will have the opportunity to learn consistent hurdle forward dive pike from 1m, back dive from 1m, forward somersault from 1m, and inward dive tuck from 1m. The thrill of diving awaits!
For those looking to take their diving to the next level, the program also offers a Gold Squad. This level is designed for divers who wish to compete and gain access to Diving Victoria resources. The Gold Squad will challenge divers with advanced dives such as forward 1 ½ utilising spotting techniques and somersault ½ twist from 3m. It's an incredible opportunity to push your limits and strive for excellence.
But wait, there's more! We also have a Social Gold Squad available for divers who aren't keen on competitive diving but still want to dive with their friends. The Social Squad focuses on maintaining fundamental skills from previous levels and prepares divers for the APS diving. It's a great way to have fun while honing your diving abilities.
Throughout the program, divers will be challenged to take their diving off the 3m springboard and explore dives from all dive groups and different shapes. It's a chance to showcase your skills and take your diving expertise to new heights.
So, if you're ready to plunge into the world of diving, don't miss out on The Geelong College Recreation Centre's Learn-to-Dive program. Join us for an unforgettable diving experience that combines learning, fun, and a safe environment. Sign up now and let the adventures begin!
