Our coaching philosophy is to support our athletes through success and failure, from their first jump off the diving board to the last dive of their career. Through the ups and downs in the learning process we aim to teach the kids lessons of patience, dedication, and hard work that translates to everyday life in school, relationships, and life.

Diving is a highly unique sport, given mistakes can be painful. Teaching athletes to respect and value the learning process is something we strive to set as a standard practice. Plan, Execute, and Reflect. Even as coaches we get caught up in the planning and execution, but the true problem solving happens in reflection. This process is where we experience most of our growth and development, which our coaching staff seeks to implement and share with our athletes.

 

Our Commitment

 

New River Diving is committed to create an engaging environment to promote responsibility, accountability, and unity throughout. 

Our coaching staff prioritizes the athletes success before our own. We value the opportunity to dive at the best suited level for the diver’s abilities and goals, and do so by offering various levels of recreational and competitive diving.

Our ultimate goal is to not only coach diving, but instill lessons of teamwork, dedication, and hard work for a passion. Teaching kids how to overcome adversity in life through the sport of diving is the most gratifying reward as a coach.
