Chelmsford and District Sub-Aqua Club

 

CDSAC LogoDiverWe are an active scuba diving club and Branch 0306 of the British Sub-Aqua Club, based in Chelmsford, just look at the Dive Programme under diving in the club on our website www.chelmsforddiveclub.co.uk to see for yourself just how active. We have a very busy schedule with diving aimed to give our new trainees some experience, diving to excite and entertain the experienced divers and a few dives to get some adrenaline flowing for our more experienced, qualified and adventurous members. Hopefully something for everyone. Have a look at the Reports & Photos section to see what we have been up to. We organise a number of week, weekend and day boat dives over the year with the main season starting in April and running through to October. We have dive trips all round the UK coast from Scotland to Cornwall with favourites being St Abbs and The Seals of the Farne Islands

 

SealFishThe club was formed in 1970, we currently have about 85 members of which about 70 are active divers who range in experience from newly qualified Ocean Divers to Trimix and Rebreather divers. They range in age from teenagers to divers in their sixties and come from all walks of life.  

We welcome divers trained by all agencies to dive with us or to continue their training with BSAC. We also have an active training programme for new divers and try-dives twice a year in April and October. 

We meet twice a week both socially and for training. On Tuesdays at the Crown in Sandon for theory lessons, chat and of course the odd drink, and on Fridays at Riverside Ice & Leisure in Chelmsford for our pool night.

 

 

PoolsideThe club actively trains members both for the diving qualifications and Skill Development Courses such as Oxygen Administration, Defibbrillator Use, Boat Handling, Nitrox and a whole host of other courses we can teach in house, not to mention supporting anyone interested in instructor training with plenty of 'constructive' criticism and plenty of hands on practice.

Besides our main diving activities members are also involved with Chelmsford Underwater Archaeological Unit and Chelmsford Octopush Club

Apart from diving we are very active socially with regular meetings and many organised social events such as parties, theatre and show trips, non-diving holidays. Our Annual Dinner Dance is a fantastic event with 90 attendees this year. See our Social page for more idea of what else we do.
