CAL Diving Club (yes, U.C. Berkeley) was launched in July of 2013 as an athletic club devoted to springboard diving and platform diving (5m, 7.5m, 10m), as in "swimming and diving" (not scuba).
Springboard diving is a safe and fun sport offering both physical and mental skill-building elements.
Our coaching staff has thousands of hours as competitive divers and diving coaches at every level – from Elite, Junior Olympic, and Olympic levels too youth age-group and adult/Masters first-time divers. We are very proud of the talent, experience, and teaching methodologies offered by all of our coaches and staff ~ www.CALdiving.org/coaches.html
CAL Diving Club is sanctioned by both national governing bodies of our sport; the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) and USA Diving.
Legendary names like Greg Louganis and more recently Troy Dumais are icons in society; based in-part on their skills as divers ~ you’ve watched it during the Olympics, you’ve seen the hit TV show “Splash” – now you, your child/ren, or both, can fly through the air with the greatest of ease.
The art and grace of springboard diving dates back to the 17th century and was added to the Olympics in 1904. The CAL Diving Club can coach you to new heights of confidence and self-reliance, along with the physical and mental strengths garnered by diving. All are welcome - from 8-98; the CAL Diving Club has a progressive program that will be tailored to match your starting skills and goals be you a beginner or an elite diver.
CDC offers classes, private lessons, and are building competitive teams at every level - from age-group novice and Future Champions (both first-time/beginner programs); to Elite, Junior Olympic, High School, College, and Masters Diving opportunities.
