Introduction to Plymouth Diving
In May 1992, Plymouth City
Council agreed to the implementation of a full time professional diving
programme at Central Park Pool.
In July of
the same year, the programme began with a series of Summer Courses in diving,
which throughout the following months, expanded into the comprehensive structure
that we have today.
This
programme is designed to offer the sport of diving to anyone who is interested,
through a series of beginners courses, from which talented youngsters are
afforded the opportunity of entering the more advanced training squads, where
the emphasis is placed on personal achievement, excellence, competitive success
and enjoyment.
As well as
the comprehensive competitive programme, there is also space within the scheme
for enthusiastic divers who wish to pursue the sport recreationally, without the
pressure of competitive involvement.
