Diving WA is the State Sporting Organisation for the Olympic sport of springboard and platform diving in Western Australia. Their vision is to be a sport of choice for West Australian's, with their purpose to increase awareness of Diving in WA, and promote participation and success in the sport, from Learn to Dive through to Elite.
The partnership will see the two organisations work together to run a combined one day Fun Fest program, whilst also exploring further opportunities to develop, support, enhance and strengthen our work in supporting children.
Edmund Rice Camps WA CEO Kevin Knapp said, “Edmund Rice Camps is very proud to partner with Diving WA, an inclusive sport that shares a commitment to creating safe, fun and rewarding programs within community. Together we will make a positive difference in the lives of kids, young adult mentors and coaches by raising awareness about community needs, sharing ideas and empowering young people to build social capacity.”
Diving WA CEO Steven Rose said, “this is a fantastic opportunity for Diving WA and its members to give back to the community.”
“Edmund Rice Camps WA are a great organisation with incredibly passionate staff and volunteers.”
“Diving WA is proud to be assisting in providing opportunities for children and volunteers to have fun and try diving, who may not have had the opportunity to previously experience this.”
The first Fun Fest program will be run in early 2017. Thank you Diving WA we are beyond excited and can't wait to work together!
