Competitons

Star Diving take divers to a number of competitions around the country each term.  We currently have squad members diving at Regional, Novice Skills and Age Group competitions and are working towards Elite Junior diving.

The Great British Diving Federation (GBDF) website contains useful information about dives, dive numbers, tariff sheets and rules.  Please visit their website if you are interested in learning more: http://www.diving-gbdf.com/index.html

Where possible we like to take divers away as a team which involves the competitive divers travelling and staying together under the supervision of coaches and chaperones.   The divers are all there to encourage each other throughout the event which leads to a great team spirit.

All chaperones are volunteers and have been CRB checked and have also attended a Safeguarding and Protecting Children’s Course.   We do rely on parents volunteering to attend competitions as chaperones.  If you are able to volunteer for future competitions that your child may be attending, please contact our Club Administrator on info.stardiving@gmail.com who will arrange a place at a safeguarding course for you and will also put you in contact with our Welfare Officer who will arrange for the CRB check.

Star Diving attends competitions at many different venues so for your convenience here are links to their respective websites:
