Hello Divers, Coaches and Parents!
We plan to have an AAU tri-team scrimmage July 5th, 2022 at the Goodyear YMCA in preparation for AAU Nationals in San Antonio July 16-23.
Next year’s season starts up mid-August and we plan 4 AAU meets in 2023. Locations will be the Goodyear YMCA, Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff (district meet), Kino in Mesa, and Anthem in North Phoenix. We have requested to host the South Red, White and Blue National Qualifier meet.
The AAU also plans to hold the National Diving Championships at ASU in Tempe, AZ.
Barb Nejman retired as our District Diving Sports Director but continues to support our program through outreach efforts to city rec departments along with mentoring our coaches.
