COURSES

Beginners Diving Course

This course will develop the basic diving skills required to undertake competitive starts.

Competitive Starts & Turns course

We appreciate that some of you may have already completed a diving course, however this course will include diving off blocks at both the deep and shallow end of Tudor Grange pool. Without this extra tuition, swimmers cannot be awarded the Preliminary Competitive Start Award or Full Award. They are therefore unable to dive at the shallow end and are disadvantaged as team members when we attend galas.

Some of the most common reasons for disqualifications are incorrectly performed starts and turns.

It is quite normal to have to complete these courses more than once to fully master the techniques.

If you feel you would benefit from this extra more specific instruction on both of these elements, contact our Membership Secretary Laura Farquhar on 01564 770 197.


Swimming Lessons

Blythe Barracudas want keen swimmers to develop towards competitive swimming. If you are interested or know of someone who wants to join an ambitious club then contact our Membership Secretary Laura Farquhar on 01564 770 197.
