North Central Dive Club

Welcome to North Central RipFest Diving Club. This club serves the northside of Indianapolis Area. Whether you are just a beginner or needing to tune up your dives come join us at North Central RipFest held at North Central High School's Natatorium and RipFest Dryland Center to get coached to excellence. This is the fall and preseason high school training for the fantastic world of diving.

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.

Do you offer any discounts?

We offer a 10% sibling discount for the second (or additional) child. Please contact the account manager for more information.

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.

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.
