The club have been selected 'Diving Club of the Year' at the Swim England South East Regional Awards.
The annual awards recognise Swim England members and clubs, showcasing those who create great experiences across aquatics.
Sara Todd, chair of Swim England South East, said: “The award celebrates that your club goes above and beyond to create exceptional experiences both in and out of the water, placing your members at the heart of everything you do.
“The panel were very impressed with the nomination received, which demonstrated the fantastic work that the club are doing. For this reason the panel felt you were a worthy recipient.”
An awards presentation event to celebrate this year's winners will take place at the Holiday Inn Guildford on Sunday 16th November.
New Learn to Dive Awards - Videos Now Available!
The Star Diving Team has undergone a review of the Star Diving Awards (levels 1-10) to ensure that these are the best fit for purpose and allow the divers to move along the skills and the pathway as easily and skillfully as possible.
We have made a few changes to the levels after this review. While there are not any huge adjustments, there are a few skills that have been added and some that have been shifted earlier or later in the levels. You can find the new skills under the Learn to Dive section of the website!
To see how the dives should be completed we have created videos for each level with some of our squad divers demonstrating the skills. Head over to here on the website to see these!
Please be aware that this may affect the percentage levels of your child's grade. They will however be on their correct grade that they were on or advanced to last term. The coaches will be grading them throughout the term on the new skills. While they complete this the percentages may be different from last term.
