This is a very friendly and welcoming club that offers all forms of Scuba Diving Training plus great trips away around the coast of the UK and abroad. Plus you can join as a family or individually. Learn to swim , snorkel and play Under Water Hockey commonly known as Octopush. They meet at Perdiswell Leisure Centre Pool in reception every Thursday night at about 8.00pm on wards. Contact via the website or just pop along and have a chat. New members always welcome. I joined and have never looked back and I'm keeping myself fit at the same time bonus.

I joined Worcester Divers and had been attending every Thursday evening for an hour session in the pool. I had lessons from 4 different instructors (not all were actually qualified) and I attended 13 weeks in a row and was told after the 6th lesson I had completed the pool sessions and just needed to have a session with a dry suit which was not arranged until week 19. I finished the 6 hours of theory and was told the exam would be in a few week time but there never was an exam. One week I was told to bring my dry suit to the next session but when I turned up there was no sign of the instructor so I had no training and was left to swim around with another student with no supervision as the other instructor was giving a try dive. The reason I chose BSAC was because it was cheaper than PADI so I could put the money saved towards equipment. However, as I am not local to Worcester and after travelling back and forth for the passed 23 weeks and working out the cost of fuel and pool entry fees, I have ended up spending more than a PADI course and I am still not finished. After speaking to 4 other members I am not the only person who thinks the club is too relaxed and very slow at getting us through the course. A local diver has spoke to me who says he completed his PADI course in just 9 weeks so looking back I feel I made a big mistake going down the BSAC route as I got to 23 weeks and I still have a few weeks more to complete the course. I also spoke to another BSAC club and they informed me that 2 of their club members left Worcester because of the same reason. I have now got to the point where I am bored and so fed up I have decided to give up diving all because of Worcester Divers. Definitely do NOT recommend this club.

Complete and utter joke. I know people who have been attending for over 6 months having lessons and have still not sat an exam or had open water training. There is no communication within this \club\ and it's a complete disgrace.
