In the United States, pre-college divers interested in learning one and three meter or platform diving should consider a club sanctioned by either [[USA Diving]] or [[Amateur Athletic Union|AAU Diving]].  In USA Diving, Future Champions is the entry level or novice diver category with eight levels of competition. From Future Champions, divers graduate to "Junior Olympic", or JO.  JO divers compete in age groups at inter-club competitions, at invitationals, and if qualified, at regional, zone and national competitions.  Divers over the age of 19 years of age cannot compete in these events as a JO diver.

USA Diving sanctions the Winter Nationals championship with one, three meter, and platform events.  In the summer USA Diving sanctions the Summer Nationals including all three events with both Junior and Senior divers. USA Diving is sanctioned by the [[United States Olympic Committee]] to select team representatives for international diving competitions including the World Championships and Olympic Games.

AAU Diving sanctions one national event per year in the summer.  AAU competes on the one, three, and tower to determine the All-American team.
