Fishers Diving Camp will again be offered at the July 20-25, 2008 (All skill levels accepted) Held at: University of Wisconsin, Osh Kosh
email contact: coachjoe@fishersdiving.com The repeated success of our camp lies in the experience, enthusiasm and genuine devotion of the coaching staff. Experience: Collectively, the coaches at our camp have over 50 years of coaching experience at the college or high school level. They also have over 30 years of collective coaching experience at diving camps, which is a claim that not many camps can make. While many camps use college divers that have little coaching experience, we pride ourselves on the expertise that we can provide to our camp participants. Enthusiasm: Our coaching staff is known for their enthusiasm during practice and other camp activities. This enthusiasm "rubs off", which results in a fun practice environment. The fun often continues into the evening during activities such as volleyball, movie night, dance night, and the world famous lip sync/skit night. Genuine devotion: Everyone involved with our camp shares a common bond. We are all devoted to the sport of diving. We believe that our efforts help promote and perpetuate a sport that provides many positive experiences to its participants. Click here to go back to Table of Contents
