PLYMOUTH Diving, supported by Pilkington Estates and Plymouth Active, took a strong team of 17 divers to compete at the South East Regional Age Group event in Southampton.
The event provides the opportunity for the Age Group divers to test themselves against divers from across the south and south east and try to meet the qualification standard for the National Finals.
The competition was fierce with some fantastic performances from the Plymouth divers, who were given fantastic support from their coaches, Tommy Davis and Cody PowellTuckett.
The A category for 16 to 18-year-olds saw Ben Hall produce some outstanding dives on all boards and test some of his new high difficulty dives. He finished with two medals, securing bronze in both the 1m and Platform events, while nearly making it a hat-trick of medals on 3m where he finished fourth.
Rose McCabe was also in action on the Platform and was aiming to hit the scores needed to be in the running for the National Finals. She performed some great dives and finished seventh in a tough category, but did get the scores needed.
Erin Healey was also competing on all boards aiming to test her new dives and did an amazing job securing three top 10 finishes. She finished in tenth on 1m and sixth on 3m but her best performance was undoubtably in the Platform event where she narrowly missed out on a medal in fourth.
