DIVE PROGRAM

Competitive Path

The competitive program is our long-term pathway to prepare athletes to compete in USA Diving competitions, and become recruitable athletes to
NCAA Division I, II and III schools.

Elite Team

Character, work ethic and commitment are also considered. Group assignments can be changed at any time by the Head Coach if any athlete fails to meet the performance and/or character expectations of the group. Placement in an Elite group is not guaranteed simply by meeting the physical requirements.

Novice Team

The competitive program is our long-term pathway to prepare athletes to compete in USA Diving competitions and become recruitable athletes for NCAA Division I, II and III schools. All competitive path athletes begin in the novice program and advance through 7 levels of progressions to be eligible for the Elite Team.

Revolutionize Diving

How are we doing things different

The Mission Viejo Nadadores Diving program is looking to change the way we approach the development of age group divers in the United States. The country currently has a competitive system which incentivizes skipping steps and rushing through the fundamental elements of diving. The Nadadores have a system in place in our program that reinforces building a strong foundation. This is designed to support their future development in the sport of diving, setting them up for long-term and sustainable success in their athletic careers.
