Because of
the number of divers, the ACWS Winter 2009 Diving Team will be divided the
team into (3) practice groups. This design may be "tweaked" as
needed as we get started and see how the groups work out.
Groups A,
B and C.
Each group
has a dive requirement to meet to be included in that practice group.
These
groupings allow the older/ more experienced divers a little more board
time. They have more dive requirements than the younger/ novice divers.
The young
5/6,7/8 year olds lose interest and get distracted if too much time spent
at practice. They also only have to do 4 total dives, two of which are
just front and back jumps. Also, on Tuesdays, Assistant Coach Shelly
Buchter will devote her time to the beginners.
Group A
is the entire team.
Group B
a diver must be able to do an inward dive in tuck position and a front
(11/2) somersault or a back (1 ) somersault in tuck position.
Group C
the diver must be able to do all of the following: inward
dive, back dive, reverse dive and a front 11/2 somersault, all in tuck
position.
