2023 NVSL Scholarship Recipients

Each year the NVSL awards scholarships to graduating high school swimmers/divers to be used at the school of their choice to help defray a portion of their continuing education expenses. The league considers team commitment and leadership, school and community involvement, and a submitted essay as criteria for selection. 

• Presidents' Scholarship - Created in honor of the volunteers who served as league presidents of NVSL.
• Community Service Scholarship - Created in honor of George MacDuff and daughter Melinda. George served as the league records chairperson for many years.
• Spirit Scholarship - Created in honor of Olivia Aull to recognize spirited swimmers and divers from within the NVSL family.
• Sportsmanship Scholarship - Created in honor of Joan Olson, long-time director of the NVSL and chairperson of the Seeding Committee, who was a passionate advocate for sportsmanship.
• Excellence in Technique Scholarship - Created in honor of Lou Sharp, founder of the Competition Swim Clinic, who guided generations of NVSL swimmers in stroke technique and love for swimming

Week 5 Results

Local High School All America Divers

NVSL Dive is proud to congratulate our local divers for achieving the DIVING ALL AMERICA designation from the National Interscholastic Swim Coaches Association, which is awarded to the top 100 male and female High School divers in the US.  The entire list is available at All America Diving (niscaonline.org).  

The list for 2022-2023 includes the following divers:

Message for parents and supporters of NVSL Dive

NVSL Dive Parents and Supporters,

First, in anticipation of our first NVSL Dive Meet on Tuesday, let me thank all of you who came to the Coaches”, Referees” and Judges” Clinics. Your interest and dedication to the sport reflects both your and your sons’/daughters’ interest in the sport of diving. If you lose any sleep about judging, then we have been successful in our instruction. We had over 120 attendees at the first two judge’s clinics so far, and hope to see more at the “Last Chance” Judges’ Clinic at Camelot next Wednesday. We welcome any parent who wants to learn more about diving to attend this clinic.

A few reminders for our referees and judges as we begin the NVSL Season:

1. Make sure you and your judges get to the meet at least 30 minutes prior to the start to review the rules and get the sheets checked.

2. As a reminder, coaches cannot be referees or judges.

3. Make sure that all of the judges on your panel know the specific rules and standards for NVSL diving. Ensure that all of the judges are familiar with the scoring ranges

i. Excellent 10

ii. Very Good 8 ½ - 9 ½

iii. Good 7 - 8

iv. Satisfactory 5 - 6 ½

v. Deficient 2 ½ - 4 1/2

vi. Unsatisfactory ½ - 2

vii. Failed 0

4. Remember the keys to judging:

a. Bold, controlled approach

b. Verticality in takeoff (if no vertical takeoff, deduct significantly)

c. Tight body positions (straight, pike, tuck, or free)

d. Entry which is “finished” prior to hitting the water

And, don’t overscore the 201A, 5111A and 5211A!

As a developmental league, we need to encourage all our divers to improve, but also to maintain the integrity of the sport by applying the standards of dive equitably. It is our “prime directive” to do exactly that.

Seeding Committee Updates

NVSL Dive Parents and Supporters,

I am writing this note to thank the past members of the NVSL Dive Seeding Committee for their service and to welcome the new members into the NVSL Dive Seeding Committee.  Thank you, Julie Fowler (WG), Peggy DiScipio (FC), and Leddyanne Dell (W) for your dedication and service to the committee over the past years.  You have contributed immensely to the growth of diving in this area and the ability of our divers to compete equitably during their summer competition.  This has significantly advanced our primary NVSL goals – to develop a love for the sport, advanced aquatic skills, teamwork, and the principles of good sportsmanship and has also allowed our athletes to grow as valuable members of our community.

We are excited to add three new members to our committee this year.  Welcome, Megan Burski-Wells (CCC), Joel Waterfield (G), and Rachel Paci (VW) to the NVSL Dive Seeding Committee and thank you for volunteering.  Your experience and judgment will afford the league competitive seasons in the years to come.

I encourage the rest of you to get involved in the NVSL diving community to ensure its viability and growth.

A Quick Note on Sportsmanship

As we enter the last two weeks of dual meet competition and begin our championship events, I want to encourage our officials (referees, judges, table workers, and announcers), coaches, team representatives, parents, and spectators to maintain the high standards of sportsmanship that the NVSL Standards of Conduct demand.  Just a few reminders . . .

* Many judgment calls made during the meet are “in the opinion of the referee.”  As such, they stand.  While other officials, coaches and spectators may disagree with a particular call (or non-call), the referee’s decision is final.  For team reps and coaches, referee judgment calls are not grounds for a protest.  We also don’t use any video replay in our decision criteria.

* When there is a question of a rule interpretation or application, the referee should attempt to resolve it in a timely manner, i.e., prior to the next dive, if possible.  Coaches, officials, and team reps can legitimately raise a rule application question during the meet, but should do so in a courteous, non-confrontational manner.  The team reps need to be involved in any of these discussions and the meet should not be unduly delayed.

* We are all human, have our own opinions, and can make mistakes.  Math errors, incorrect rule applications, wrong DDs, etc., can all be adjudicated.  But we also need to be role models for our divers in these interactions.

Finally, as the NVSL Handbook says, remember that we are all responsible for developing in our children,

A love for the sport, advanced aquatic skills, teamwork, and the principles of good sportsmanship.

Certified Referee List is posted

The updated list of certified referees for the 2022 season can be found here and in the documents area under "Dive Officials Information".

As a reminder, the home team must ensure a certified referee is available at their meet.

Note to new judges in the NVSL

As the NVSL Dive Chief Official, I wanted to offer you some insight and advice.  Last year we had 2334 divers in NVSL – that’s the most since I’ve been keeping records from 1998.  Let’s give each of these divers the opportunity to compete equitably.  NVSL has a great reputation for judging “according to the standards of diving.”  As new judges, each of you are now charged with maintaining that reputation of excellence.

We are ready to begin the 2022 NVSL Dive season and you have (I hope) joined us at one of the Judging Clinics.  For first time judges, you will have the best seat at the pool; here are a few hints at your first time in the “seat.”

Getting ready for 2021

NVSL Dive is gearing up to return to competition this summer. We are very hopeful that we will be able to have a full, safe, and enjoyable season. We have invited our 2020 graduated seniors to come back and dive this summer, and several have accepted the invitation. We look forward to giving them a proper senior send-off, along with our 2021 graduates!

We are keeping up to date on Covid-19 guidance and may need to modify our usual meet logistics somewhat to allow for social distancing and pool capacity limits, but with a little creativity and flexibility, we can do this. It's great to see so many adults getting vaccinated, and this will really help the volunteer situation on the pool deck. We have posted suggested Covid-19 protocols to help your pool clubs and teams plan for the season. Every club and team is different, and the pandemic situation is fluid, so please take these as suggestions only.

Team reps, please mark your calendars for the May 23 virtual team rep meeting at 4pm and the distribution of your meet materials at Arlington Forest on June 6 from 8am to noon. There will also be judging and table work clinics that morning, offered both in person and virtually. More info to come.

Free diving judge course

NVSL Dive Reps, Referees, and Judges:

As the Chief Diving Official for the NVSL, I have received a notification of a free diving judge course for prospective/existing judges.  A FREE course is available from the National Federation of High Schools (NFHS) for diving judges.  PLEASE NOTE that the diving rules are not exactly the same as our NVSL rule, but the judging criteria is the same.

I’m forwarding the link below to you to take advantage of the courses offered FREE by NFHS.  One of the courses is “Officiating Swimming and Diving” – don’t worry, there is a separate Diving only section.  While it includes preliminary “how to officiate” stuff and a review of the High School Rules, it has a very valuable section on practice judging.  There are 30 different dives shown and you get to judge each; NFHS does a good job of explaining the rationale for each “score” (they actually use the scoring descriptors – satisfactory, deficient, good, etc.).  So, if you want to improve/test your dive judging abilities, I’d recommend you take a look at this course.  It’s free until July 1.  Click the link in the blue box below and register with NFHS; then find the diving course under the COURSES tab under “Officiating Swimming and Diving.”

This course can be found at https://nfhslearn.com/courses/officiating-swimming-and-diving

Hope you are all safe.  Hope also to see you at the pools next season.

Jim Sweeder

Chief Dive Official

COVID-19

While all of us navigate life under the threat of the COVID-19 virus, our League has received a number of inquiries about the upcoming NVSL swim and dive season.   We kindly request that you allow us time to make an informed determination as we explore various scenarios, which may result in a cancelled season, an abbreviated season, a delayed season or a full season as scheduled.

We are closely monitoring everything that we can, including federal, state and local government guidance and prohibitions, other swim leagues and organization guidance, local and non-local, and our member pool decisions. We have always stressed safety in the NVSL, and our priority will continue to be the health and safety of those involved in our community.

We wish you the very best and hope that you and your loved ones remain healthy.

Two Important Updates

Two important updates as we head into the first week of meets.

1. The certified list of referees has been updated and posted to the documents section of the website under "Officials Information". Only NVSL certified referees on this list may referee a meet. https://dive.mynvsl.com/file/31195/2019___Certified_Referee_List_pdf

2. Information has been posted about the coaching clinic hosted by Alexandria Dive Club on Sunday, June 30. Please read this flier for more information.

June Rep meeting and Clinics Sunday

We’ll be kicking off the 2019 season this Sunday at 8:30am at Arlington Forest Pool, located at 5401 N. Carlin Springs Rd. in Arlington.  Coffee and light refreshments will be provided.  When you arrive, please pick up your bag of meet materials at the top entrance so you can stick it in your car before heading down the hill to the meeting.  If you ordered B meet ribbons, you will pick those up here as well.  They are 10 cents each, and can be paid for by check made out to NVSL Dive.  Cash is ok, but please have exact change.  

All dive reps should make every effort to attend this important meeting.  If you cannot attend, please send someone from your pool to pick up your bag of dive meet essentials.  You will need everything in this bag to host a meet.

I’m attaching a link here to some materials that will be helpful to review before the meeting:  

https://dive.mynvsl.com/file/31157/June_2019_Meeting_Packet___FILES_COMBINED_pdf

There is an agenda, the minutes from the last meeting, the referee expiring certification list, score reporting instructions, flyers for the Wally Martin and All-Star meets, and both the participant and team rep insurance waivers.  Please review the minutes before the meeting so we can vote on their approval shortly after we begin.

We’ll keep the meeting portion fairly brief so we can start the clinics by 9:45.  Please encourage folks from your teams to attend these clinics.  If you are a new team rep or you have a new meet secretary, the table worker clinic is for you!  You will leave much less stressed, knowing how to run a meet and report the scores.  If you need more judges on your team, ask some team parents to attend the judging clinic.  It’s really thorough and includes lots of practice scoring actual divers.  Your newbie judges will gain the confidence they need to help you at those A meets.  These clinics will ensure that your volunteers are trained and ready before the dual meets begin. 

2019 Scholarship Application

The 2019 NVSL Scholarship instructions and application has been posted to the document repository, or can be found here. The deadline for submission is June 28.

Team Rep Meeting

Hello Team Reps,

Our meeting is this Sunday, 3/3 from 1pm-3pm at the Arlington Central Library (1015 N. Quincy St.). We will be meeting in the Donnellan Auditorium, which is to your right as you enter the first set of doors from the back entrance. I recommend parking in the back parking lot (enter from 10th St.) for easiest access. The library opens at 1, so you will not be able to get in any earlier than that.

We have a lot to cover at this meeting, including proposed rule changes. We hope to have every team represented as we vote on these. Teams will also be receiving their dues and insurance assessments and reviewing insurance requirements for the upcoming season. The agenda and handouts for our meeting can be found at this link:

https://dive.mynvsl.com/file/30836/Team_Rep_Meeting_Packet___March_2019_pdf

Crackerjack Results

Here is the link to the results of Sunday's Crackerjack meet.

Crackerjack Results 7/22

Crackerjack Timeline and Volunteer Schedule

In the link below, you can find the estimated timeline for Crackerjack and the assignments for judges and tableworkers.  If you volunteered to work and are not on the list, please stop by the tables whenever you are available to see if someone did not show up and if we need additional help.  With the potential weather, we need this meet to run fast and smoothly.  Please have your divers and workers there well before the estimated times because a lot of divers don't show up (especially in this weather), and the meet will probably run early.   Please be sure to let all your judges and table workers know when they are assigned and try to find replacements if someone cannot make their assigned time.  We do our best to assign people when they ask, but everyone wants early in the morning and no one wants later in the afternoon.  See everyone on Sunday!

Wally Martin Update

I know many of you have been waiting for the official estimated timeline for tomorrow.  At long last, here it is.

Wally Martin Timeline

Please advise your divers to be at Oak Marr at least a half hour before their warm-up starts, so they have time to register and make any needed changes to their sheets.  We will try to have the NVSL Dive twitter updated periodically so that you all can follow the progress of the meet.  This timeline is only an estimate, and things may move slower or faster.

I am aware that there were problems with Junior 3M online dive sheets.  Unfortunately, I didn’t find out until 20 minutes before registration closed that the software was not allowing jumps and entries per our new rules.  I was assured these changes had been made, but they were not.  I apologize for the frustration.  It's now fixed, so we’ll be able to take changes at check-in tomorrow.  If you would like to email me your changes today, I’ll try to get as many of them in as possible.  Please emphasize to your divers that they really do need to check the dives that are entered for them when they check in on deck. 

Hospitality at this event will be provided for officials only, since they will be there all day, and we have limited funds for refreshments. So please make sure your coaches know to bring food or make other arrangements to eat.  Oak Marr does have a smoothie bar upstairs, which I am told will be open starting at 9 a.m. 

Good luck to all your divers, especially those trying these events for the first time! 

See you tomorrow

Wally Martin Meet

It’s time to get ready for the Wally Martin 3-Meter and Synchro meet on July 15 at Oak Marr!  In hopes of encouraging more participation, there have been some rule changes for the Junior events.  Juniors may now do entries (fall-offs) and jumps on 3M.  Please refer to the ruleset under "Documents" in the folder "NVSL Dive Championship Meet Information".

Week One is here!

We hope that everyone is excited for the first A Meet of the 2018 season. Right now the weather looks good for Tuesday evening!

The dive meet sheets that were handed out at the meeting have caused a little confusion. The first dive must be a forward dive or front fall in. The forward dive may be performed in straight, pike, or tuck (designated by A,B,C or S,P,T). The front fall in does not have a position attributed to it.

We have uploaded a new dive meet sheet to the documents section of the NVSL website, https://dive.mynvsl.com/documents, under number 5, "Dive Officials Information & Meet Support Materials".  This meet sheet should make it easy for announcers. You may use the tablets provided or print out the new sheet.

We have also posted an electronic fillable meet sheet. When a dive number is typed the sheet will populate the dive description and DD. This is another option available for you to use.

Good luck on week 1!

Spring Update

The weather is heating up and the season is nearly upon us. We have some spring reminders and updates for all teams.

Coaches Clinics
Please let your coaches know that there are two coaches’ clinics being offered for the 2018 NVSL Diving season. The first clinic, given by NVSL Diving, is being held at 4 PM on June 2^nd at Arlington Forest pool. It’s important for your coaches to attend to get up to date information on safety, insurance, rules, working with League officials, and the operation of the League. This clinic is geared to both experienced and newer dive coaches.  This clinic is free of charge.

The second clinic is being offered by Stephanie Sutton, the head of Dominion Dive Club and renowned US Diving national level professional coach from 11:30 AM to 1 PM on Saturday June 16^th at Oak Marr pool.  This clinic will instruct on the elements of dive coaching from the perspective of summer league programs. This program is geared to our newer and lesser experienced coaches in NVSL Diving.  There is a fee associated with this clinic.  Pls see the flyer here for more information. THIS CLINIC IS NOW FULL

These clinics are NOT interchangeable. The first clinic is an NVSL Diving orientation clinic and the second an opportunity for learning basic coaching skills from a professional dive coach.

Meetings and Clinics on June 10.
Don't forget that there are lots of important events on June 10, starting with a team rep meeting at 8:30 AM, followed by a judging clinic and a table worker clinic at 9:45 AM. All events at Sideburn Run.

2018 Spring Dive Rep Meeting

NVSL Diving Meet Results

Beginning with our fourth dual meet on Tuesday July 18, we will be showing meet results as they are entered by team reps.  Please note that the scores are not final until they have been reviewed by both team reps and the divison corrdinator.  After those reviews are complete, an NVSL diving EXCOM member changes the status to "finalized" and the scores will be carried over to the standings table.

After a meet score has been finalized, if you have questions or concerns about a specific diver entry please contact your team rep to resolve the issue.  If your team rep cannot handle the request, s/he will escalate as appropriate.  Thanks!
