Are you the owner of Luton Diving Club?
Paul, the organiser at Luton Diving Club (LDC), located at Inspire: Luton Sports Village, wants to share some exciting news with the sports community. Over the past 50 years, LDC has built a reputation for excellence, offering its members the chance to compete at local, regional, and national levels. Affiliated with Swim England and proud to hold the SwimMark accreditation, the club stands as a beacon for diving in the UK.
The journey of Luton Diving Club began when it parted ways with Luton Kingfisher Swimming Club due to growing interest in diving. Initially, sessions were held at Wardown Swimming and Leisure Centre, but in 2012, the club moved to the top-notch facilities at Inspire: Luton Sports Village. The venue boasts diving boards up to 10 metres and a fully equipped dry gym to meet the training needs of all squad members.
At its core, LDC is all about inclusivity. Paul emphasises that everyone is welcome, regardless of ethnicity, nationality, sexual orientation, religion, sex, age, or ability. The main aim is to support members in participating in various diving competitions. Training, provided by Active Luton and managed by their Diving Development Officers, ensures everyone gets the guidance they need.
Luton Diving Club is always on the hunt for talented individuals who have the potential to shine as competitive divers. Whether it's through beginner lessons, holiday courses, or taster sessions, promising children are spotted and nurtured. Key attributes such as flexibility, strength, coordination, bravery, and attention to detail are essential. Those with backgrounds in gymnastics, tumbling, trampolining, or dance often have a head start.
Parents who see these qualities in their children are encouraged to contact LDC to arrange a "talent trial". Lessons and training sessions are all overseen by Active Luton, with the Head Coach at the helm. Joining the club’s squads and competing can happen through lessons or talent identification.
For more information or to book lessons, interested individuals can contact the reception at Inspire: Luton Sports Village or visit the Active Luton website.
Paul and everyone at Luton Diving Club are dedicated to promoting diving, nurturing new talent, and offering a supportive environment. Whether you're just starting out, a seasoned diver, or simply interested in the latest club news and events, LDC has something for everyone. Dive in and be part of an amazing journey!
