Hui Tong's Major Coup to Snare His “China Plate” Diving Australia Supported by HUI TONG’S MAJOR COUP TO SNARE HIS “CHINA PLATE” FROM THE US DIVING AUSTRALIA has pulled off a major coup by appointing heralded Chinese Olympic diver and coach Kongzheng Li to the role of Head Coach of the Victorian National Training Centre in Melbourne. “KZ”, as he is universally known throughout the diving community, comes to Australia with a wealth of Olympic experience both on the boards and tower and as a coach in the USA. As a competitor “KZ” (pictured left with his old friend and rival, Diving Australia head coach Hui Tong) participated in over 50 international competitions representing China and the USA between 1975-1998 - a stellar career highlighted by bronze in the 10m platform at the 1984 LA Olympics – where he defeated Hui, who was fourth. Gold in the 1984 Olympic final went to the legendary Greg Louganis (who also won gold on three metre) with Australia’s triple Olympian Stephen Foley, ninth. “KZ” and Hui met at a diving exhibition in China in 1976 – “KZ” was 17 and Hui just 13. “KZ” had joined the National Team in 1973 and in 1974 won the platform event at the Asian Games, making him “hot property” in China – Hui later joined the National Team in 1977. The pair had many battles over that time and at the China National Championships in 1982 the pair tied for first place on three- metre springboard. “KZ” moved to the USA in 1985 and returned in 1988 for the Olympic Trials – competing for a spot on the Olympic team against his old mate Hui. “KZ” won the event and a place on the team for Seoul. The same year the pair both retired from competitive diving. In a celebrated career, “KZ” would beat Greg Louganis four times – three on platform and once on three metre. “KZ” also combined competing and coaching in the USA, including stints at a number of leading colleges including George Washington University, the University of Texas, the University of Minnesota and Florida International University and he also served more than 20 times as a USA Diving National Team Coach, Team Leader/Manager and Judge for international competitions. Now settled in Melbourne, “KZ” will work with his long time friend and team mate Hui to ensure Australia’s diving talent continues to prosper long after the names Newbery, Helm, Barnett and Tourky have left the sport. And so far “KZ” likes what he sees – both in the water and out. TALENT SEARCH “I enjoy Australia very much and although I have been here many times before I had never been to Melbourne until now,” said the esteemed coach. “I love this city because it is a modern city and the culture is great but I am also impressed with the state of diving in this country. Diving in Australia has been really good on the world stage for years and I can see talent here too.” One thing “KZ” views as a challenge for Diving Australia is our lack of competitive divers. “One thing I have noticed is we don’t have as many divers around, we lack numbers diving at a base level. At my last club in California I had 60 or 70 divers but in Victoria, where we have some great talent, we don’t have the same numbers,” he said. “KZ’s” squad in Melbourne will be funded by Diving Australia and will act primarily as a feeder or development squad for the AIS program run by Hui in Brisbane, but “KZ” says it could also cater for senior divers based in Melbourne that are not able to move to Brisbane. 2012 LONDON OLYMPICS The group will have up to 10 members aged mostly between 10 and 18, with a focus squarely on the 2012 Olympics in London but “KZ” says there are a few that may be ready to make their mark sooner. “We will mainly have young divers preparing for the 2012 Olympics,” he said. www.diving.asn.au “We will build up to be as good as possible but in this program I can see a few competing in 2012 and some may even be ready for senior open level very soon.” “KZ” says he has his old mate Hui to thank for getting him down to Australia. “I almost came here a long time ago, about 10 years ago now, but things didn’t work out but now Diving Australia is doing well and the Federal Government gives more support and I knew I had always wanted to be here,” he explained in his Chinese- American accent that already has a touch of Aussie slang. “Hui really wanted me to come to Australia and without his support I wouldn’t even be here.” Together “KZ” and Hui, just might strike the right cord, with the future in very capable hands.

Specifically, this review assessed the impact that the 2007 FORMULA 1™ Australian Grand Prix has on the competition program for the World Championships – in particular the Diving program which was scheduled to commence on Sunday, March 18 2007. During this review process, the best interests of the athletes, teams and officials have been the most important consideration. The review also included consultation with a number of key stakeholders including the Australian Grand Prix Corporation and FINA. As a result of this review process being completed, the Corporation announced the following changes to the competition program for next year’s World Championships. Summary of changes to the Diving Competition Program • The Diving Program has been moved back a day so that it now commences on Monday, March 19th and concludes on Monday, March 26th. All events in the Diving program will now start a day later. • Preliminaries and Finals in the Diving program will start at the same time as scheduled in the original competition program except for the following: - On Day 8 of the World Championships (25/3/2007) the Women’s 3M Final will now be held between1500-1615 and the Men’s 10M Final will now be held between 1700-1830. - On Day 9 of the World Championships (26/3/2007), the Women’s 3M Synchronised Final and the Men’s 10M Synchronised Final will be held between 1530-1830. These changes to the Diving Competition program have been made to: • Ensure that the noise impact on the competition from the Grand Prix is eliminated; • The order of events in the original competition program is retained; and • There is no clash with the timing of Finals across the entire competition program. Summary of training arrangements at the Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre (MSAC) • The training period for the diving athletes will now be extended from five days to seven days – starting Monday, March 12th and Wednesday, March 18th. • 58 hours of training time at MSAC will be made available during this time. • No Grand Prix events are scheduled between Monday, March 12th and Wednesday, March 14th. • During these days 11 hours of training at MSAC will be available between 0700-1330 and 1500-1930; • Between Thursday, March 15th and Saturday, March 17th, training at MSAC is scheduled between 0700-0900 and 1800-2200. • On Sunday, March 18th, seven hours of training at MSAC will be available between 0700-0900 and 1700-2200.

  • Chantelle Newbery OAM
    Chantelle Newbery OAM Triple Olympic Athlete Chantelle Newbery became Australia’s first diving gold medallist in 80 years, and the nation’s first female Olympic diving champion ever, when she won gold with the 10-metre platform event at the 2004 Athens Olympic Games. Chantelle had started diving at the age of 12 after successfully competing as a tumbler in gymnastics but chose to concentrate on diving primarily because of its Olympic opportunities. Her decision eventually led to her representing her country in diving at three Olympic Games – Sydney, Athens and Beijing. Chantelle’s career highlights include the Gold medal at the Athens Olympic Games in the Women’s 10m Platform and Bronze in the Women’s Synchronised 3m Springboard. She also made history at the Athens Games as half of the first husband-and-wife combination (Athens dual bronze medallist diver Robert Newbery) ever selected to represent Australia. Chantelle has been honoured many times for her participation and achievements in diving. She was Diving Australia‘s Diver of the Year in 1997, 1998 and 1999 and was also the 1998 Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) Diver of the Year. In 2006 she was inducted into the AIS ‘Best of the Best’ and was a Channel 9 ambassador for the 2006 Commonwealth Games. Chantelle competed at the Beijing Olympic Games in 2008 and shortly after announced her retirement. However, out of the pool, her life was falling apart. At the time, Chantelle had two kids and was supporting her husband Robert in the payment of his studies to become a Medical Doctor.

All Rights Reserved. 125 Kingsford Smith Ave, Middleton Grange NSW 2171 Page 1 of 3 FORMER OLYMPIAN INSPIRES STUDENTS It is not every day you have the opportunity to wear a Commonwealth Games Gold medal. This was the opportunity recently when former Australian Olympian Alexandra Croak visited Year 8 and 9 students last week. Alexandra Croak is 1 of 13 Australians to have competed in more than one sport at the Olympic Games. In the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games Alexandra, as a 15 year old, represented in the individual all-around and team competitions. She then went on to win gold in the team event and silver on the beam at the 2002 Commonwealth Games. What makes Alexandra’s achievements even more remarkable is that at the 2006 Commonwealth Games she represented Australia in the sport of Diving. This made her the first Australian woman to compete at consecutive Commonwealth Games in different sports. Alexandra went on to compete in the 10m platform diving at the Beijing Olympic Games and reached the semi-final. In 2010, she won the 10m synchronised platform with Melissa Wu, making Alexandra the first Australian woman to win gold in two separate Commonwealth Games sports.
