JOIN THE DIVE TEAM!

The team offers a great opportunity for children to learn new skills, experience the excitement of competitive diving, bond with other kids in the community, and above all HAVE FUN!!

No dive experience necessary! If you can swim the length of the pool, jump off the diving board you can make it! Any pool member between the ages of 5 and 18 who has successfully completed the swim test required by our pool operator can join the Dive Team. Children of all ability levels are welcome, no prior diving experience is required. We look forward to seeing you at the diving well this summer!

2026 PRACTICE SCHEDULE:

Monday-Friday, 5:30-6:30 and 6:30-7:30 (one hour per diver) starting the day after Memorial Day (Tuesday). Coaches help athletes gain strength and confidence in a safe environment while having fun along the way. Divers will develop their skills in proper technique, as they progress through various dives at their own pace.  If your diver is also on swim team and practices conflict, they can join dive practice in the times that work for them.  Get in touch with us at [email protected] to discuss the details.

Parent Participation Required

MCDL dive meets require every family to provide a parent volunteer for all meets that their diver attends.  Most jobs can be quickly mastered by a rookie!  We will provide a volunteer training for parents early in the season. One parent from each family must take the MCDL-sponsored training for Judges and Referees.  If this presents a hardship for your family, please discuss with the team representatives. Dive meet scores, records and other resources can be found at MCDL website.

Gender Inclusivity Policy

Montgomery County Diving League uses binary gender categories.  While MCDL policy supports athletes in competing in the category that aligns most closely with their gender identity, it does not currently offer categories that are a clear fit for agender, nonbinary, genderfluid, or genderqueer athletes.  We support these athletes in diving on our team.  Unfortunately they will have to choose to compete as “boys” or “girls” for the duration of the 2024 season.  We will continue to advocate for full inclusivity in MCDL and all youth sports.  Read the MCDL policy here.
