Pennant Week 4 / Qualifier Program of Events  (Timeline, order and side) - Click Here

The 2020/21 Diving Victoria Pennant 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 through the season.  Divers must be registered as financial members of Diving Victoria to compete. Divers may compete on Springboard (either 1m or 3m) and Platform each week.  Some weeks will also offer exhibition events such as: Synchro, Team Events, Skills Events.

Structure for this event

• Divers may choose to compete Pennant Levels 1-5 OR enter the Qualifier - but not both
• Pennant divers may enter the level they are ready for (do NOT need to follow the level they were in last season)
• Divers entering the Qualifier may dive in Springboard (either 1m OR 3m) and Platform.  They may dive their Age Group, Junior Group or Open, but not Open and age/jr.
• If qualifier divers do not have enough dives for their Age-group, they may still enter and compete with less dives, but they will not be able to qualify for nationals if a qualifying score is achieved.

Changes for 20/21

• Late entries will only incur an additional fee, they will not have to dive by invitation
• Dive sheets must still 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 (info@divingvictoria.com.au) and approved by the Cheif Referee.  If approved, the diver will dive by invitation in that event.
