Dive Team

Abigail Parish

Hi! My name is Abigail Parish and I currently attend International School. Newport Hills has been my home since I was very little as I have been swimming and diving for the past 10 years. I have been diving for NHSTC since 2019 and for a club team since 2020. I am so excited to be the head coach for Newport Hills this year and be able to share my knowledge and love for the sport with others! My goal is to help foster the passion and confidence for diving in every diver and watch them succeed. I cannot wait for this summer season and hope to see so much growth. From doing your first hurdle off the diving board, to the first dives and front flips, I will be there to help guide kids and make them feel comfortable, confident, and proud of the work they accomplish

Summer Dive Team 2024

Please return completed SafeSport and Midlakes Hold Harmless form to the Head Coach
on the first day of practice.

Registration opens June 12th

What is Dive Team:
A fun, positive, and goal oriented program for kids up to the age of 18. Compete on a weekly basis and strive for improvement for each individual diver, while making sure they are enjoying the sport of diving in an encouraging environment. Coached by experienced divers that are confident in their knowledge of the sport. No Dive Team experience needed but participants must be able to swim 25 meters. Final practice times are determined by the coach

Dive Team members must be members of NHSTC or of any other Midlakes pool that does not have a dive team. For more information on how to become a member

Memberships

Cost is $210.

The dive team suits will be the same as the swim team suits this year.

SafeSport Requirement for All Midlakes Participants (Swimmers, Parents/Volunteers, Board, Coaches)

All swimmers, divers and water polo players will need to be SafeSport trained to compete in Midlakes Swim & Dive League. Midlakes Swim & Dive League is committed to improving the development and safety of athletes and participants involved in swim, dive, and water polo. In an effort to prevent the emotional, physical, and sexual abuse of athletes, Midlakes wants to implement both prevention training and prevention policies. The goal of all trainings is to equip participants with knowledge on how to Prevent, Recognize, and Report sexual misconduct and keep our league safe and fun for all participants.

If Coaches and Swimmers are not trained before your Club’s first practice, they will not be allowed to enter the pool until your training is complete. Parents and Volunteers must be trained by June 1st. We recommend everyone get trained as soon as possible, so you don’t forget and end up rushing to squeeze the training in at the last minute.
