The Goodyear YMCA Silver Fins Dive Team brought national recognition to the West Valley with its performance at the 2026 AAU National Diving Championships July 16-23 at the Fort Lauderdale Aquatic Center in Florida.
The competition brought together more than 800 of the nation’s top young amateur divers. Athletes competed in one-meter springboard, three-meter springboard and platform events.
Despite competing with a roster of only seven boys, the Silver Fins finished second in the boys team standings — just one point behind the national champions, whose roster included 16 scoring divers.
