Dive TeamThe Westleigh Dive Team is a member of the Montgomery County Dive League (MCDL). "The MCDL Mission is to promote the safety, fun, and learning of the sport of Springboard Diving through instructional practice and age-level competition." - MCDL handbook Divers compete against dive teams within our league in the following age groups, based on gender and age on June 1, 2010: 8 years of age and younger, 9-10 years, 11-12 years, 13-14 years, and 15-18 years. The divers learn the basic front and back jumps and dives, and can progress to more complicated somersault, reverse, inward and twisting dives. Points are awarded to the teams for their first-, second-, and third-place finishes within each age group. The Montgomery County Dive League does not require team suits; most dive teams use the same suit as their local swim team. Although no specific suit is required, long and loose trunks on our male divers can be present a challenge when performing tucks, so jams (the longer spandex boys' suits) or Speedo’s are recommended. For more information, you may contact the Dive Team representative Pat Schmitz, at (301)279-5910 or e-mail (pasc4@comcast.net) or (patricia.keegan@fda.hhs.gov).
