PADI SEAL TEAM
Duration: 5 Sessions - Total Cost: £174 (incl Materials) - Minimum Age: 8 - Prerequisites: None
Well, now PADI have designed a completely new pool-based programme especially for kids (minimum age 8), called the “Seal Team”. Kids have their own video, Activity Book and log book, and take part in 5 pool training sessions, called “AquaMissions”. At the same time as they learn the necessary confined water skills, they will also take part in entertaining pool games to develop their diving abilities, confidence and comfort.
It’s a great way to introduce youngsters to the underwater world and retain their interest until they are old enough to take a Junior Scuba Diver or Open Water Diver qualification.
Once they have completed the 5 sessions, they are signed up as Seal Team Members and are then eligible to take further specialist Aqua Missions to become Master Seals. Additionally, the five sessions count as Confined Water Module One from the PADI Open Water Diver Course, and this referral credit is valid for 12 months, so the PADI Seal Team member can upgrade onto a Junior Scuba Diver or Open Water Course at any time during the following year (provided he/she is 10 years old or over at that time)
As the programme is entirely pool-based, we run it in 4 or 5-week cycles on Friday evenings, meeting at Gildenburgh Water at 6pm.
The cost is £49 for the PADI Seal Team Pack and £125 for the training programme. (Payment for training can be made in instalments)
