Description
The Cambridge Diving Development Centre caters for springboard and highboard diving in Cambridge. Learn to Dive Programmes are run by the Centre, whilst the competitive side of the Centre is known as the Cambridge Dive Team. The Centre brings the opportunity for many youngsters (and not-so-youngsters!) to fling themselves off high structures into a pit of water.

Sounds like fun eh?! You should try it; there really isn't a feeling like it! And there really isn't a feeling like realising that you're still in one piece as you land!

The Dive Centre is run by a group of very hard-working volunteers, who all have full-time jobs to keep at the same time. The team caters for people of all abilities (all we ask is that you are a strong swimmer) and all ages.

We are one of the leading diving clubs in the Midland District. We compete at all levels from novice to national level, and at all ages including masters. With the excellent diving facilities at Parkside Pools we have a rapidly expanding diving club.

Providing opportunities for diving from novice to national competition standard, the pool has wide range of facilities with 2 X 1m; 1 X 3m springboards & 5m platform.

Learn To Dive (up to 14 years old)

Half-hourly sessions are run at Parkside Pools on Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays and lessons are based around the ASA Frosties Awards Scheme where divers work towards badges. Within each session there are three levels through which divers progress as they gain badges.


There is a strong element of fun, whilst divers learn the basic skills off the poolside. There is also the opportunity to use all the diving boards within each lesson. Diving is a great way for children to improve balance, coordination and confidence in a fun, relaxed and friendly environment.

All our coaches are fully trained and dedicated to helping every child reach their potential. All that we require is that children can swim two lengths and are confident in deep water.


Why not book your child(ren) in for a 'taster' session to try it out?
