It allows you to receive notices by text and/or by email. The upside is that you do not have to actually download the app! The coaches have downloaded it - All you have to do is tell the app by which method (email and/or text) you would like to receive messages. You can also opt out of receiving messages at any time. Please note that the coaches will only use the app to send out messages. While the app does support conversations between the coach and recipients, we will not use this feature. Swimmers are also welcome to respond so that they get messages sent directly to them. If a child is under 13 years old, a parent will be notified and will have to sign up also. That age threshold security is a requirement of the app designer. How it works: "Classes" are set up by the user (coaches). People can then join the classes via text or email (or both) and then will receive any posted notices on your phone or in your inbox. Please note that we will still be posting pertinent information on the website. We will not be duplicating everything! The "class" for my notices to the Science Hill Swimming and Diving Team is SHHS Swim & Dive To add yourself and receive messages via text: Text @shhsswd to 81010 To add yourself and receive messages via email: Email [email protected] The "class" for my notices to the Liberty Bell Swimming and Diving Team is LBMS Swim & Dive To add yourself and receive messages via text: Text @lbmsswd to 81010 To add yourself and receive messages via email: Email [email protected] FORMS – Required before you can begin practice!

In fact, this time is a key component of our training cycle . Some of the practices will be designated as "optional". The others will be required. (You may substitute an optional practice as a make-up for a required practice). Some days there will be two training sessions per day. If two training sessions are listed, attendance at both is expected. As soon as the pool schedule has been determined, a detailed Winter Training Schedule will be handed out and posted on the web site. MLK Day: Mon, 1/17: Regular practice schedule; Weights 7:30-8:30 AM (if there is no school) Snow Policy If school is delayed or cancelled prior to 5 AM, swimming and/or weights is also cancelled for that morning. (If no decision has been made by 5:00 AM, we will still conduct and complete the scheduled morning practice) If school is cancelled or dismissed early, refer to the Remind feed for updates about the afternoon practice schedule. Equipment There are all kinds of suits , in many materials and for various prices. At some swim meets, swim shops are set up to sell suits as well as other swimming gear. Some good bargains on practice suits can usually be found there. If you are looking for a good, long-lasting suit, the Endurance fabric suit by Speedo is very good. It's a bit heavier than other suits, but can be used for both practice and meets and lasts a long time. A lycra suit is usually the least expensive, but tends to wear out the fastest. More technically superior suits such as the Speedo Fastskin and LZR suits are all made of special fabrics designed to minimize drag through the water. Swimmers competing at meets below the State level probably will not see a significant improvement using these high-end suits. Swimmers who want to invest in additional personal training equipment will be able to get a discount from our supplier. Items needed are: pull buoy, paddles, fins, snorkel (not the freestyle snorkel – the general Finis or Speedo snorkel), noseplug, kickboard, and an equipment bag to store everything in. If feasible, we will schedule a “try on day” when Swim & Tri Swim Shop will come to the pool to take orders. This is contingent on their ability to do this given the current pandemic. Parental Involvement We do need parents' help to make the season a success. For home meets, we need volunteers to act as timers, officials, computer operators, and announcers. In addition, the Booster Club has activities which enhance the Swimming and Diving Team experience for our athletes. Please give generously of your time and talents!

  • Diving Standards (I.E., Code of Federal Regulations, 29.1910 Subpart T)
    STANDARDS FOR THE CONDUCT OF SCIENTIFIC DIVING June 3, 2004 OFFICE OF POLAR PROGRAMS NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION 1 FOREWORD The Office of Polar Programs (OPP) of the National Science Foundation (NSF) provides support for underwater diving associated with the research activities it funds in Antarctica. The NSF/OPP’s Standards for the Conduct of Scientific Diving have been developed to ensure that all scientific diving conducted under the aegis of the Office of Polar Programs is conducted in a manner that will maximize protection of scientific divers from accidental injury or illness associated with underwater diving while optimizing the researchers’ ability to conduct research. The OPP Standards have been patterned after the American Academy of Underwater Sciences (AAUS) Standards for Scientific Diving, a document that has provided a template for scientific diving at most academic and research institutions in the United States over the last fifty years. The approach described in the AAUS Standards for Scientific Diving has been recognized by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) as providing an alternate means of protecting divers than their commercial diving standards (i.e., Code of Federal Regulations, 29.1910 Subpart T). There are inherent risks in underwater diving and doing so in polar regions involves additional risks because of the environmental conditions and remoteness. The OPP Standards for the Conduct of Scientific Diving provides a framework within which to manage those risks and allow underwater diving in support of the scientific enterprise in Antarctica to proceed safely. Each scientific diver should acknowledge those risks and commit to conducting their underwater diving activities in accordance with the OPP Standards.

  • Surface-Supplied Diver Training Manual
    Surface-supplied Diver Training Manual Tennessee Aquarium Chattanooga, TN Published by the Diving Control Board Tennessee Aquarium Chattanooga, TN 1st Edition 2007 Purpose Surface-supplied diving is defined in the Tennessee Aquarium Diving Safety Manual (TADSM) as a diving mode in which the diver in the water is supplied from the dive location with compressed gas for breathing and is in voice communication with the tender on the surface. This definition is based upon the requirements outlined in the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s Code of Federal Regulations. (29 CFR 1910 Subpart T) This federal law outlines the criteria for all commercial diving. The surface-supplied diving mode requires gear and techniques that are not introduced in recreational diver training. This text was designed by the Tennessee Aquarium Diving Control Board to introduce Aquarium divers to the fundamental principles associated with surface-supplied diving. This text should be accompanied by proper practical training, as outlined in Appendix A, to promote safe surface-supplied diving under the auspice of the Tennessee Aquarium. Figure 1 – Secret Reef Dive Show- A primary use of surface-supplied diving at the Tennessee Aquarium. i Introduction There are numerous advantages to surface-supplied diving that make it an excellent choice for many diving operations. First, the diver has the benefit of an unlimited air supply. With a surface-supplied diving system, a diver can theoretically stay underwater forever. Of course, in reality, there are comfort, thermal, and decompression limits. For deep technical diving, a surface-supplied rig relieves the diver of the need to carry numerous stage bottles.

  • Best Diving Practice Guidelines*
    Appendix 1. Best Diving Practice Guidelines* A1.1 Divers should terminate the dive while there is still sufficient cylinder pressure to permit them to safely reach the surface and return to shore or boat, including allowing for any decompression time or planned safety stops. A1.2 The dive team should not include a diver who for any reason is not physically or psychologically fit at the time of the dive; or whose dive equipment is not in a safe operating condition in the opinion of the nominated dive leader. A1.3 All dives, including repetitive dives, should preferably be calculated using DCIEM tables (Canadian Defence and Civil Institute for Environmental Medicine), but the use of well-maintained dive computers is acceptable. A1.4 Divers should do a safety stop at 5 m depth for at least 3 minutes immediately before surfacing at the end of each dive where the average depth exceeded 7 metres or the maximum depth exceeded 10 metres. A1.5 If a dive does extend beyond the no-decompression limits, divers should remain awake for at least 1 hour after diving and remain in the company of another person prepared to assist with medical intervention if required. A1.6 Divers should adhere to the buddy system as taught in their dive training. This buddy system is based upon mutual assistance, especially in an emergency. A1.7 If a volunteer diver becomes separated from their buddy: a) the diver shall do a 360-degree search for a maximum of 1 minute looking for bubbles or visual sign of the other diver b) if the lost diver is not located, the searching diver shall return to the surface at the correct ascent rate, still performing the 360-degree search on ascent c) the searching diver will deploy a safety surface marker buoy, use a whistle (or ask where the lost diver is) and wait on surface for 4 minutes d) if the lost diver is still missing, divers are to return to their boat or shore and initiate emergency procedures by contacting emergency services.
