Hamilton SE RipFest Dive Club

Welcome to the Hamilton Southeastern Ripfest Diving Club. Located at Hamilton Southeastern High School 12499 Olio Rd, Fishers, IN 46037.

We offer diving springboard and platform lessons and club membership for athletes ages 8 - College age. We run our club out of Hamilton Southeastern High School for water and dryland practices. We also use the RipFest Dryland Center for more focused dryland workouts and rope pulling.

Our program is geared toward beginners to advance divers. Your athlete will learn how to jump and dive off the diving boards through a step-by-step learning process. This process includes a skill development system both on floor and dryland equipment, as well as in the water and pool side. Athletes will move through skills at their own pace, while encouraged to try new steps in a fun and safe environment.  We offer a free diving practice to try out our program and see if diving is a good fit prior to registering.

We also offer Diving Lessons for those 5-10 year olds that are very new to diving. Please see the information below for this program.

There are 4 seasons of practices for each year - Each season requires registration and you are paying for the participation of the entire season.

If you need to miss several weeks, please plan ahead to attend more practices the other weeks to cover missed practices. If your athlete chooses to stop prior to the end of the season, we will miss them, but you will still need to pay the full season payment, even if you chose to payment it in monthly installments.

What if we miss a practice, do you offer makeups?

Due to our limited pool time and a set schedule, we offer all levels of diving at every practice. Therefore, if you miss a practice that you normally attend, please feel free to join us for a different practice when you are able to come. We don't offer traditional make-up practices. Instead, our pricing is based off of the number of practices you attend per month, not specific days and times for specific levels of athletes, like other sports programs.

If you find that you have registered for 8 practices for the 3 months and are only able to come an average of 5 or less per month, then please register for the next three months at the reduced 4 practices to allow for the additional sessions that you had paid for. If we find that you continue to attend more often than you pay for, we reserve the right to increase your rate to the correct fees with an open line of communication for our coaches to you.

Do you offer refunds?

We will only offer partial refunds for those that have a medical issue or moving out of state. We do not offer refunds for missed practices. We do not offer refunds for missed practices due to attending RipFest camps. You are required to pay for the full amount of the season.

What should my athlete wear?

We ask that female athletes wear a one-piece suit and if they have long hair to put it in a ponytail or braid. For male athletes they can wear any swimsuit, but eventually you will find that wearing a "speedo" will be the most comfortable.

Do they need goggles?

No, goggles are a hazard when diving off the boards. Please do not wear goggles to practice.

What is Dryland practice?

Dryland is a great opportunity for divers to work on board mechanics and understand how to flip correctly using floor, dryboards and trampolines. Our dryland center is located at 108 S Olive Street, Arcadia, IN 46030. We have 40'x40' spring floor, 15 dryboards, 14 trampolines and a foam pit with platforms. Athletes are asked to wear t-shirts and shorts and can wear sweats when cold.

Do you offer meets or competitions?

Yes, we do. Throughout the year we will offer intersquad meets/competitions for all our locations to meet and work through dives they have learned or list they want to compete in bigger national competitions. Our intersquad meets are held locally at any of the RipFest club locations. This schedule will be announced in the area above and sign-ups are required through the website. The cost is $25.00/meet.

The other option for those ready to test their skills against other clubs throughout the nation is the USA Diving Regional/Zone/Nationals competitions and/or the AAU sports competitions that are held mostly from April - August. These require specific list requirements based on age and organization offering the competition. These meets require a registration on either www.divemeets.com or cleanentries.com the cost to enter these meets is $50.00/event or more. You must talk with your coach prior to registering and you must follow our TYR attire requirements as well.

The TYR store is ready to take orders for our 2024 travel season. Athletes that attend any USA Diving or AAU meet are required to purchase the TYR gear listed below.

Parents/divers will order directly from the TYR- RipFest store. You will see LOTS of items in the store, but you are only required to purchase the gear listed below. You are more than welcome to purchase additional TYR/RipFest gear if you so desire.
