There has been a lot of activity at Ocean and Sports Diver levels  over the past

two months.

Training has been done at Blue Lagoon, Stoney Cove and on the

Costa del Scunny (Ashby Ville).   Stewart Hinchliffe qualified as Sports Diver in

April and Mark Sykes and Colin Smith completed their Ocean Diver qualifiers

in early May.

Mac has done some sound work in leading experience dives at Blue Lagoon and

Ashby Ville and Sandra has continued to support the club by instructing in all

three locations.  I am grateful for the input from everyone in the

instructing/leadership team; I am still  restricted to dive managing from terra

firma. 

I have ordered training packs for several members in particular  the

newly-qualified and soon-to-be-qualified Ocean Divers so that they can begin

training at the next level.

Indeed, Colin and Mark have already begun their Sports Diver practicals at

Ashby Ville where they have also been playing casualty for Rick Stevens who

will soon complete his Sports Diver  qualification.

The new influx of divers at Ocean Diver level means that we have sufficient

numbers interested in running  in-house courses again.  Phil Field is willing to

offer another course  on using the new club O2 kit (so if you missed it in Spring

let me know) and to organise a compressor course at the boathouse.
