All expenses to local competitions must be paid by
the diver. Most of the travel fees will be included with your monthly
bill. Meet fees may include hotel, car rental, gas and food, plus the cost
of sending a coach and sometimes chaperones. We make every attempt to keep
these costs low and we do a great job of keeping our travel expenses to a
minimal. Often we will negotiate prices right up to checkout time.
Due to this practice, we can only estimate the projected cost. It has been our
practice in the past to split all coach's meet expenses evenly among divers
attending the meet.
MEET ENTRIES
For Junior Olympic or Senior National Divers,
attendance at meets throughout the year are designated by the coaching staff as
mandatory or optional. Flexibility is allowed for Novice. With the
exception of certain major meets, it is the responsibility of each diver to
submit his/her entry form and entry fee (usually between $10-15/event). Meet
information will be posted on the website and is distributed by the coaching
staff.
All meet information and entry forms can be
downloaded from
United States Diving website.
ADDITIONAL COMMITMENT
All parents will be expected to assist at
all diving meets which Cougar diving Club hosts and will be asked to assist,
whenever possible at other meets and diving functions.
Reflecting the spirit and effort of our program, we
ask that parents should try to set an example in the diving community with
enthusiasm, cooperation and helpfulness. We are all ambassadors of our sport.
