We run diving classes for children, teens and adults, and train a competitive squad.

We’re based in the brand new Harrow Lodge Leisure Centre in Hornchurch, East London.

Our highly experienced coaches were all competitive divers themselves – at National and International level (European Championships, World Cups and even the Olympics!)

We’re currently developing a young squad and are making the most of our state of the art facility, which opened in April 2021.

We have two 1m springboards, two 3m springboards and a 5m platform.

Join Us for a Trial Session

Inspired by Tom Daley? Fancy having a go yourself?

Contact us to arrange a free trial session!

Divers need to be able to swim 25m confidently, in very deep water, without goggles.
All divers will be given a swim test at the start of their trial session.

If you love it and want to come back, you can book onto our beginners course, then move into a regular lesson group and work your way up into the squads.

All children’s trial sessions are held on Sunday afternoons, either 2-3pm or 3-4pm depending on availibility.

New divers MUST complete our beginner course on Sunday afternoons before they can move to alternate days or times.

To arrange a trial, please email: hello@cormorantsdiving.uk with your child’s name and age. Please confirm that they can swim 25m without goggles in your email.

Adults and 16+ Trial Sessions

We run one adult session per week: 7-8pm on Tuesdays (pay-as-you-go).

All abilities are welcome, from absolute beginners to ex-competitive divers.
