Springboard Diving Schools in California

Springboard diving is a competitive sport in the swimming family. The diver jumps from the springboard and completes acrobatic flips and twists before breaking the surface of the water. Divers often possess the same skills as gymnasts and dancers since the sport requires grace and kinesthetic abilities. California is a mecca for diving. There are teams and clubs throughout the state. From the beginner to the competitive diver, there are teams and clubs available.
