11.01.2022 With great sadness, Diving Australia mourns the passing of Life Member, Barbara Donnet. Barbara, and indeed the Donnet family, are synonymous with Diving in Australia. An Olympian (1956), and two time Commonwealth Games medallist, including Gold on 10m in 1954, Barbara leaves an amazing legacy in our sport. After an accomplished career as an athlete, including multiple National Championships (Barbara continues to hold the record for most consecutive Women’s 3m National Champi...onships with 6) she turned her hand to coaching where she had great success, including coaching at a World Junior Championships where both her daughters (amongst others), Jenny and Barbi, performed very well. She was also one of the first four Level 3 coaches in Australia. After moving to Queensland for warmer climes, Barbara continued to coach extensively until 2011, bringing to a close an over 60 year close relationship with diving. It was a great pleasure for Diving Australia to welcome Barbara to pool deck in recent years to check in on the progress of Australia’s young divers. Barbara was made a Life Member of Diving Australia in 2011 and our thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends at this difficult time.

04.01.2022 Diving Australia National Squad Member and 2016 Rio Olympic Team athlete Kevin Chavez has today announced this retirement from competitive diving. Since beginning diving at age 11 in his native Mexico, Kevin has been an outstanding athlete and role model for the global diving community. The 28-year-old notched an impressive list of accomplishments, including a standout performance at two FINA World Championships and an Olympic Games for Australia. Reflecting on Kevin’s career..., Diving Australia General Manager Performance and Pathways, Steve Foley, highlighted his apparent effortlessness in completing challenging skills and his fierce devotion to excellence. Kevin is well known for his amazing strength and power on the springboard and his list of dives were often the hardest possible, Foley said. One of Kevin’s great attributes was his fantastic contribution to the team and he was highly respected and liked. A positive and excellent role model for our next generation of divers, Kevin has a gentle, quiet make-up but hidden inside is his determination, courage and ambition to be the best he can be. After a successful stint in Mexico, including a medal winning performance at the FINA World Championships in 2013, injuries raised questions of a premature retirement. However, with the help of national coach and NSWIS Head Coach Chava Sobrino, Kevin emigrated to Australia in 2015. Kevin is one of the most talented athletes I have ever coached, with incredible speed, very strong, yet elegant and beautiful. He was able to do amazing and difficult dives with incredible ease, Sobrino said. He was always a team player and created great relationships within the team; he had the respect of everyone. Although we will be sad to see Kevin step off the springboard, he will continue to contribute to the sport through his coaching roles at Perfect 10 Diving (Sydney) and mentoring the next generation of diving talent at NSWIS. From all of us at Diving Australia, we wish Kevin the very best in the next chapter of his life and thank him for his ongoing commitment to our sport, his unwavering relentlessness, and his dedication as a supportive team member.
