Scuba Olympics 2026
Grab your dive buddy and prepare to test your skills at the Scuba Olympics! On Sunday, August 30, 2026, Sport Divers of Houston is turning Mammoth Lake into the ultimate underwater arena. This isn't just a dive; it’s a team challenge where your skills are the only thing between you and glory.
We’ve curated a series of diving events designed to challenge you and your teammate’s training against other teams in Texas’s premier 65-acre underwater playground. Whether you're gliding past a sunken C-130 or hunting for relics from AstroWorld, every second counts!
The Main Events:
- The "Neutrally Buoyant" Obstacle Course: Precision is the name of the game. Can your team maintain a perfect hover while navigating through mid-water obstacles? Show us that "neutral" is your natural state.
- The Search & Recovery "Score O": Something is lost in the depths! Use efficient search patterns to locate "sunken treasure" around the lake. The “treasure” will have different point values depending on size and how far away from the finish they are.
- 100-yard Tired Diver Tow: Demonstrate rescue awareness, strength, and efficient surface transport of a fatigued diver while maintaining control and safety with the fastest time.
- The Mammoth Lake Compass Course: With over 150 sunken objects—including a WWII submarine and a Giant Mammoth—getting lost is easy. Prove your compass skills by hitting specific waypoints and returning to base without breaking the surface with the fastest time.
Grab your dive buddy, download the official rules, and start training.
