What is Springboard Diving??

Springboard diving is one of the most spectacular and exciting aquatic sports. It involves an immense amount of strength, flexibility and courage.  Competitive springboard diving involves one or two divers performing spins, twists and somersaults into a pool from a series of heights.

​

Heights of the boards range from 1m to 3m, with platform diving going as high as 10m!  Not sure how high 10m is? Just imagine two giraffes standing on top of each other… and then diving head first from that height!

Here at East Lyme Aquatics we teach and train the sport of springboard diving through the use of both of our 1m diving boards.

Nutmeg Dive Team

The Nutmeg Dive Team offers both competitive options and non-competitive options to Divers.  The team runs year round and dues are due monthly.  There are 3 different levels on the team.  Each level introduces a higher level of dives that are being taught and an additional practice day during the week.  Throughout each level our program focuses on positive learning in a safe and fun environment and provides an opportunity to compete locally and/or nationally at each level.
