HEAD COACH

My mission and passion is to help young athletes reach their greatest potential at the novice, high school, and JO levels of diving. The Iowa Diving Camp will foster and develop positive character traits, a hard work ethic and good sportsmanship that centers on excellence. With my teaching background, I have a strong focus on diving education and proper technique. This camp also utilizes the latest equipment and video to safely teach the sport. This camp is designed to help divers reach their next level! The Iowa Diving camp is a family-friendly environment that will provide athletes with some of the top training in the country along with lifelong memories.

We are Training Tomorrow's Champions.

Facilities

The University of Iowa Athletics Department and the University of Iowa Recreational Services partnered to construct the Campus Recreation and Wellness Center (CRWC). The $69 million facility, which opened in the summer of 2010, serves as the home for the Hawkeye swimming and diving programs.

The UI swimmers have a state-of-the-art 50-meter competition pool and a separate diving well. The facility also houses the team locker rooms, while boasting a swimming and diving specific training room space.

The CRWC hosted the 2015 NCAA Men’s Swimming and Diving Championships, the 2012, 2015 and 2019 Big Ten Men’s Swimming and Diving Championships, and the 2013 National Diving Championships.

The facility has 20,000 square feet of fitness space over three levels, a 52 1/2 foot climbing wall and a leisure swimming pool among other amenities.

The CRWC is located on the southwest corner of Burlington and Madison Streets. Parking is available one block to the southeast.

Frequently Asked Questions

HOW DO I GET DOCUMENTATION TO CLAIM CAMP FEES ON MY TAXES?

  • If you are eligible to deduct camp fees for TAX purposes, use TAX ID#426004813.

WHAT IF I CAN'T GET A MEDICAL RELEASE OR SCHOOL PHYSICAL?

  • A medical release MUST be signed by a doctor OR a copy of your school sports physical performed within one year of the camp date to attend any of our camps. If you come to camp without a medical release, you can contact a doctor and have them fax a copy or go to a local UI QUICK CARE and have a sports physical performed. There are NO EXCEPTIONS. If you choose to have a doctor fax us a copy, your child will be unable to participate in any sessions until this medical release is received by the Athletic Trainer.

WHEN IS MY MEDICAL RELEASE DUE?

  • When you apply online, you will be required to provide your insurance information; the medical release may be mailed later. However, it is best to send your completed medical release before you check in the first day of camp, and you can do this via fax, scan and email. THIS IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT, AS YOUR CHILD WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO PARTICIPATE UNTIL THE MEDICAL RELEASE OR A COPY OF THEIR SCHOOL PHYSICAL IS RECEIVED.

DO YOU OFFER A SHUTTLE SERVICE FROM THE AIRPORT?

  • The following shuttle services are available from the Eastern Iowa Airport:

    • Anaman Concierge Services, LLC- 319-471-2347 Website

    • Express Limousines - 319-626-5466 or 800-383-2219

WHAT AIRPORT SHOULD I USE?

  • The Eastern Iowa Airport (CID), located in Cedar Rapids, IA is approximately 25 miles north of the University of Iowa campus.

WHO IS RESPONSIBLE IF MY CHILD IS INJURED OR NEEDS MEDICAL ATTENTION WHILE AT CAMP?

  • If your child is injured during camp, they will be taken to our Athletic Trainer immediately, and the Athletic Trainer will determine what action is required. If necessary, the Athletic Trainer will contact the parent/guardian and discuss care options. We can take the camper to UI Sports Medicine or the UI Emergency Department. Cost for treatment of injuries and/or hospitalization is the responsibility of the parent/guardian. We will have your insurance information from your online registration.
