Welcome to the website of Waltham Forest Diving Club (WFDC).
The club has been running for 30 years and offers diving coaching for children aged 6 to 16.
If you are interested in joining the club please read our New Divers page.
The Club's email address is admin@wfdc.org.uk .
For existing members this site is the main source of general club information as well as news about forthcoming competitions and results.
Club Safety Rules can be down loaded as a Word document for home printing by clicking this link.
Please can parents / carers ensure that their children are aware of all these safety rules. The coaches and life guards will be enforcing them for the safety of all club members.
Transgressions may result in your child being made to take a short time out with coaches explaining the reason why. Repeated breaches may result in your child being asked to leave a session early. In the most extreme circumstances the Club reserves the right to exclude anyone who repeatedly puts the safety of other members at risk so awareness of these rules is very important.
The Club wants all the children to have fun and enjoy their diving in as safe an environment as possible.
Spring Term starts from Tuesday 10th January 2012 and ends on Thursday 29th March 2012.

Here is the CRB FAQs page which should answer most questions you may have. The named Welfare Officer for WFDC is Ian Capes. Please contact him if you have any concerns. Additonally, Shelley Abbott is the diver's representative so your child can speak to her directly on pool-side.
