As most of you know last week we had our Zones Championships in Moultrie, GA which is the qualifying meet for Junior Olympic Nationals. The top 6 finishers on each event qualify for Junior Nationals while 7-12 qualify for the Age Group Championships. Our team had several great performances resulting in 10 divers quaifying for JO Nationals and 3 qualifying for Age Groups. As a team YCF Diving finished 2nd place and will be one of the biggest teams going into nationals! It was a phenomal week for us! Our kids have put in a lot of hard work and made a lot sacrifices to get to this point.  I’m proud of them and I look forward to seeing them all flourish at Nationals. Here’s the list of divers who qualified from our team:
