Luton Diving Club
Age: 5 - 18
Do you have what it takes to be a diver? Children are selected to join our classes and squads by the coaching team, if they have the physical and mental attributes to be a top diver. We are always looking for talented children in beginner lessons, holiday courses and taster sessions who could be competitive divers. The traits we are looking for include:
• Flexibility: good pike shape, splits, flexible shoulders and achilles
• Springy jumps
• Strength: strong core, arms and legs
• Good toe point
• Competent headstand and handstands
• Coordination & control
• Bravery & willingness to try new skills from high boards
• Attention to detail and form
• Ability to make changes to dives from coaches' comments
Children with a background in competitive gymnastics, tumbling, trampolining and dance often have some of the traits to make successful competitive divers. If you think your child has some or all of these attributes then contact [email protected] to arrange a talent trial.
