How do I sign up for a meet?
First,
You need to know the meet registration type.
a. Divemeets.com
b. Manual - By filling out dive sheets
c. Other - There may be special meets that have other procedures
Normally, we will register for meets at divemeets.com If registration is different I will let you know.
Second,
All divers need to be a member of AAU or U.S. Diving. Since
all High Dive Champion members are required to register with AAU this
should have already been handled. See Registration page if you are not
currently registered with AAU.
Third,
Divers need to know their events and what dives to
register. (All dives have a number). I have talked to all divers about
their dives. The dives for all the divers are in the following
