Fun Dive lessons, adult classes and a competitive stream, all run by NCCP-certified coaches at the Grandview Heights Aquatic Centre in Surrey. Start on the recreational ladder and move up as far as you want to go.
Fun Dive programs
Every Fun Dive class splits between dryland and water time. Divers learn to jump in different directions off the springboard and the platforms, and each level builds on the one before it. No prior experience is necessary.

Competitive training
Divers move into the competitive stream when a coach invites them, usually out of the upper Fun Dive levels. Training covers springboard and platform at the Grandview Heights Aquatic Centre, and the season runs from club invitationals through BC provincials to national championships.
Elite track
Training paced to each athlete's progress. By invitation only, ages 6-18.
Regional & national squads
How we train
Video review
Video playback of the whole dive, from approach to entry.
Dryland
Trampoline, air track and harness before a skill goes to the board.
Meet preparation
Dive lists, warm-up routines and how to compete a list under pressure.
Team culture
Divers train as a squad, not as individuals sharing a pool.
Thinking about competing?
Entry is by coach invitation, so it starts with a conversation. Tell us about your diver and a coach will take it from there.
Talk to a coachNot sure which class to register for?
Tell us your diver's age and anything they have done before, and a coach will tell you where to start. New divers begin with a short assessment in the pool.
