Dive clip of me at the Provincials May 2009

While at the Provincial Championships I took some video of some of my diving during the practice and during the competitions and made a short video clip of me doing my dives. :)

No Diving

I haven't blogged much about diving of late basically because it's the off season now. All the Local dive competitions are finished for the season with the Provincials being the last competition I was in and winning in my Masters 50+ age group.

Over the summer I have been focusing on my Triathlon training and competitions and will be back into the dive scene come Sept! Hopefully I will find out about what is going on with the city setting up a dive club and find out if they intend to hire me as the coach. Until then have a great summer.

PS. CBC television is broadcasting some Diving this coming weekend July25

Happy diving!!

Welcome to the Barrie diving club blog

My name is Josef Polcz. Master Springboard diver, Diving instructor and Coach.

I am in the process of planing and developing my diving club The Barrie Diving Club Hopefully with the assistance of the City of Barrie. If not with the City of Barrie, I will venture out as an independent and organize my own use of facility's to run my club the BARRIE DIVING CLUB.

A little about me..

I was a competitive diver as a youth and dove with Etobicoke diving club under the coaching of John Dickinson, Link about JD. http://www.etobicokediving.org/AboutUs.html and Skip Phoenix. While competing I won and placed top 3 in many competitions. Then I went on to teaching and coaching. I coached my own diving club "Northview diving club" for a few years before moving on to other endeavors.

Most recently, I have started back into diving when Barrie built a new pool with diving boards and started back into diving as a master diver. I just entered and won my age division in 1 and 3meter competition at the John Dickinson invitational in March of this year.


This is me at the at the Holly Rec center in Barrie

Etobicoke Olyimpium pool. Dive practice at the John Dickinson invitational meet.

About the BDC...

My goal for the new Barrie dive club is to teach competitive diving to promising new springboard divers young and old, who want to compete in competitions across the province in local dive meets and perhaps to levels higher across the nation and international.

About this blog...

I will use this blog as an information source with pictures and video as well as tips and critiques on my own diving as well as my new divers in the future. I'll also post training times of when and where I'll be diving in future and I'll post scheduled training time for the Barrie dive club when and where it will be run.
