Program Levels

To best fit the instruction and commitment to the needs of the diver, YCF Diving breaks its classes into levels:

Pre-Team: Children who show interest in the sport of diving.  Recommended for children 7 and younger to begin to learn the fundamentals of diving.

Lesson: Novices to the sport of diving who will learn the fundamentals.  Practices geared toward learning and improving on fundamentals on both 1m and 3m

JO 1: Divers who have begun to master the fundamentals and want to take the sport more seriously and increase the difficulty of their skills.

JO 2: Advanced divers who are more committed to the program and are willing to travel.  Instruction now expands to learning platform.

JO 3: Competitive divers who have goals of reaching National Team ranking.  Compete year round

JO 4:  Nationally ranked divers with high level of commitment, training 5 days a week

JO 5: Nationally ranked divers aspiring for college scholarships, USA National Team, and potentially the Olympics

A divers promotion to next group is based upon their skills and coach’s discretion regarding the diver’s consistency, attendance, attitude, etc.  Click here for a description of the skill sets expected of each level in YCF Diving.
