The 2022/23 Diving Victoria Club Challenge is a series of competitions suited to all levels of divers from beginners through to open; it provides competition experience and the opportunity for divers to monitor their progress throughout the season.  Divers must be registered as financial members of Diving Victoria to compete. Divers may compete on Springboard (either 1m or 3m).  In weeks 4-6 we will offer: Synchro Events, Team Events, Skills Events.

Structure for this event

• Divers may choose to compete in the Club Challenge Series or the qualifying event NOT BOTH.

• Club Challenge Series divers may enter the level they are ready for (do NOT need to follow the level they were in a previous ‘Pennant’ season)

• Divers entering the Qualifier may dive in all 3 qualifying events for their respective age group.

Reminders

• Late entries will only incur an additional fee, they will not have to dive "by invitation"

• Dive sheets must be submitted before 9am Thursday.  Changes via DiveRecorder will now be accepted until 9am Friday without penalty.  Divers may not change to a new board, they may only make changes to an existing sheet.  Any changes made AFTER 9am Friday MUST be requested to the competition manager (molly@divingvictoria.com.au) and approved by the Chief Referee.  If approved, the diver will dive by invitation in that event.
