Marlins Diving Club Summer Clinics
Welcome to the 2010 Marlins Diving Summer Clinic Program. Our goal is to provide a fun, safe, and exciting environment for divers age 7 to 15 to learn new and improved techniques, new dives, key fundamentals for success and important training skills. Daily activities include wet and dry-land spotting, somersaulting and twisting techniques and the introduction of new dives.
Those considering sending a son/daughter should know that each diver’s safety and welfare is our top priority and that your child will receive professional instruction from a team of highly experienced and outstanding coaches with a low diver/coach ratio.
Emphasis will be on fundamentals, skill development and specific skill-progressions required in order to learn new dives dependent upon ability.
