Bubblemaker

Course Overview

The Bubblemaker programme lets our youngsters experience the thrill of diving underwater whilst under the close supervision of one of our dive professionals in a swimming pool environment.

Here at DIVE Rutland, we love having the Bubblemakers around, their excitement is contagious!!

What Do I need to start?

  • You need to be aged 8 - 10 years old.  If 10+ then the Try Dive sesson maybe better for you.
  • Complete the following Medical statements (if a YES on this form then an additional medical needs to be signed by a Physician) ​​

What will they do?

Bubblemakers attend our centre along with their parent/guardian supervisor to allow us to fit the youngster for SCUBA equipment and then be introduced to the world of SCUBA diving, the equipment they will be using, how to be safe and, not least, the underwater fun and games that we'll have in the pool.

After arriving at our local pool facilities - generally Oakham School pool, Kilburn Road, Oakham, the Bubblemakers will: -

  • Put on their equipment, mask, snorkel and fins.
  • Submerge in the pool to a maximum of 2 metres.
  • Swim underwater whilst trying to contain their excitement, smiles and waving!
  • Play games, throw underwater toys and generally have a great time experiencing the freedom that us divers value so much!
