Competition

There are two types of competitions SCDC will attend, AAU and USA Diving.

AAU Diving: This federation is the foundation of our sport and offers all levels of competition. AAU allows beginners who have been diving as little as one month to experience competitions at the fundamental level such as position jumps, and falling entries. Divers can also perform full competitive list that include dives in all directions and twist from springboards and platforms. 

AAU Meets are typically on a weekend and last 1 or 2 days. These meets are structured to encourage all levels of divers to better understand competitive performance in our sport. We strongly encourage all athletes to join these meets when they can!

USA Diving: This federation is structured around the highest levels of competition in our country. These meets are typically focused on the months of May, June and July. Divers will need to have a separate memberships than AAU which will allow them to participate at the national level. Divers will have a requirement of competitive dives needed to compete in USA meets. 

Typically divers will start at the regional level of USA meets, which would put SCDC against regional teams such as Georgia, Tennessee and North Carolina. Advancing from the Regional contest would put you in a Zone meet. Zones are the top divers from two regional meets. The top 10 kids from each Zone meet will then qualify for the USA National Championships where selections are made for National and International Teams.
