In this first addition of "Training Equipment" I want to give you an overview of our facility, our diving specific facility. We have one of the most extensive diving training facility in the country. We have our own dryland training area, just 30 feet from the pool deck. In it we have two trampolines with overhead spotting belts, two dryboards, one with overhead spotting belts. We also have a 30 x 6 Spring floor, and a 30 x 6 Carpeted foam floor. At each station we have a tivo system and tv, as well as a dvd player to watch diving and training dvds. We use spotting banners on the trampolines and dryboards. In the water we have two 1 meter springboards, and two 3 meter springboards on concrete stands. We also have 1, 5, 7.5, and 10 meter platforms with new rough-tex surfacing (July 08). We have a tivo for the water, as well as a bubbler system for 1, 3, and platforms. We have the only facility in the country that has a 1 meter, 3 meter, and 5 meter water belt. In upcoming blogs, I will discuss each piece of equipment in more detail, as well as provide pictures. Good Luck, and remember "Champions may fail, but they never quit"

Congratulations to the Legacy Divers that competed in the 2009 Boys High School MISCA meet on February 13th at EMU. John Santieu 1st place, Jordan Long 2nd place, and Kevin Bain 6th place. This event hosts the best high school divers in Michigan. Also, congrats to Jordan Long for his college commitment to Duke University.

We would also like to congratulate Summer Allman and Cheyenne Cousineau for competing at the 2009 World Selection Camp held at Ohio State University. They competed with all of the best divers in the United States. They were competing for spots on the World Championship, the FINA Grand Prix, and the Canada Cup teams. Cheyenne did a great job, and impressed many of the top college coaches with her diving. She was doing three new dives ( 107c, 305b, and 205b) on 3 meter. She was also able to show off her full 10 meter list for the coaches. Summer, in her 4 lists on 3 meter placed 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 2nd respectively, even beating Olympian Christina Loukas. Summer's performance earned her her first international trip by being selected to compete for the USA at the FINA Grand Prix held May 7-9.

As we get ready for the upcoming Regional meet on March 21-22, we need all the divers making every practice possible. Lets work hard and be ready for a successful meet.
