Diving
Introduction
Diving is the sport where competitors perform acrobatics while jumping from a platform into the water. Diving as a sport comprises springboard diving (1m, 3m), platform diving (10m), synchronised springboard (3m), and synchronised platform (10m). While diving into the water, divers perform a set of established requirements including somersaults and twists. In individual diving and synchronised diving competitions, men perform six dives while women perform five dives. The team diving competition involves one female and one male diver from the same federation. The team diving competition comprises six different dives from six different groups - two dives with an assigned degree of difficulty and four dives with an unlimited degree of difficulty. The female competitor and the male competitor should execute three dives each. Three dives should be executed from the 3m springboard and the other three dives from the 10m platform.
