We're looking forward to the 2024 Greenbriar Dolphins summer dive season, kicking off in late May/early June of 2024. This summer our dive team will be moving up to Division 3, and diving against some new pools. Keep an eye on this page for updates about registration, deadlines, and more.

Registration - Date TBD
Registration will be through SwimTopia on the Greenbriar Pool Dive Team site. https://greenbriar-pool-dive-team.swimtopia.com/

Dive Team T-Shirts
As part of the fee, each diver will receive a team t-shirt to wear on meet day. Parents are encouraged to purchase their own separately. To keep the cost of the t-shirts down, we prefer to make one t-shirt order, so there will be a cut-off date for ordering. We will provide that cut-off date as soon as it is available.

Dive Team Suit
Please note that the dive team suit is different from the swim team suit and is not included in the registration fees for dive. We use the suits for 2 years, and 2024 is the second year in the cycle. Dive team suits are not required for meets, but most divers prefer to have the team suit. The dive suit is the Nike Solar Rise in black and can be ordered online through Suit Up: https://shopumall.com/collections/greenbriar-dive. If you'd like to try on the suit before purchasing, Suit Up is located in University Mall at 10627 Braddock Rd, Fairfax, VA 22032.

Volunteering
The team depends on the help of the divers and the parents to ensure the meets go well. There will be sign-ups for each meet through the SwimTopia site. We ask that each dive family volunteer at least one time during the summer. Many hands make light work! Types of volunteer opportunities are listed below.

Announcer
Announcers are only required for home meets. For this position, the volunteer will open and close the dive meet, as well as announce final results. The most important duty is to read the meet sheet for each diver (their name, dive, and degree of difficulty), then pass the sheet to the table workers. The announcer reads the judge’s scores as they come up. You may also need to ask for quiet in the wings of the pool on occasion.

Table Workers:

Table workers record the scores read by the announcer, cross-check with a worker from the other team, and do the math for the final score. We need two table workers for each meet. There is pre-season training available from NVSL Dive for table workers. 

Judges
Judges get the best seat in the house! There are 5 judges per meet, some from our team and some from the opposing team. Dive scoring removes both the highest and lowest scores and uses the 3 scores in the middle. All judges should attend a pre-season NVSL clinic (three hours or so) to be a judge. This is a great position to get a much better understanding of what the sport is all about.

Fundraising
We need cashiers, workers, and baked goods/drink donations for the Dolphin Diner at-home meets (two in 2024) and other Dolphin Diner nights at the night pool.
