5QUALIFYING PROCEDURES
Divers will qualify for the NCAA championships based on performances at their respective regional meet.
Qualifying Procedures
Each regional diving meet will be given a fixed number of NCAA championship qualifiers to ensure
equitable access opportunities. This number will be determined by the number of divers eligible to
compete in a given region who have submitted all necessary information to compete in regional
competition. At the end of the qualification period, all divers eligible to compete in a regional meet, as
determined by the criteria listed, will be assigned to their geographic region. The number of eligible divers
at each region will be divided by the total number of eligible divers at all regions then multiplied by 24 for
men and 29 for women to determine the ratio for assigned qualification spots. Regardless of ratios, no
region will have less than two qualifiers. The regional qualification allocation shall be posted on ncaa.org
by Thursday, February 23rd, 2023. Qualifiers for the NCAA Division III Men’s and Women’s Swimming and
Diving Championships will be determined through the processes listed on page 18 of this manual.

18DIVING TIEBREAKER
(Applies to ties on an individual board to identify order of finish)
In the event of a tie between two or more divers from a regional qualifying meet, the tie will be broken
by comparing each of the diver’s total optional score on the board in which the tie has occurred. The
diver with the highest total optional score would have the higher finishing position at their regional
event. In the event there is a tie on the total optional score, the tie will be broken by the higher place on
the opposite board. If one competitor is not competing on the opposite board, the competitor who is
competing on the opposite board automatically will receive the higher selection position. All ties must
be broken prior to diving qualifications/allocations being identified.
DIVING QUALIFICATION
(Applies to identification of each allocated spot)
When all results are made final, including any tiebreakers, the allocated spots will be determined as
follows (refer to the Diving Selection Criteria for the allocation formula):
1. First place finishers from each board will be selected, using two of the allocated spots. If the
same person finishes first on both boards, only one allocation will be used for that athlete.
2. Next, second place finishers from each board will be selected, using two of the allocated spots. If
the same person finishes second on both boards, or one/both of the athletes have already been
selected, only one or no allocations will be used.
3. This will continue with each finishing spot (third, fourth, fifth, etc.) until all the allocated spots
have been assigned for each region.
4. If there is one allocation left and two divers who have not been selected are up for qualification,
finishing in the same ranking on each board, the committee will use the divers combined score
made up of their one-meter and three-meter scores. The competitor who has the highest score
will be invited to the meet, earning the final allocation.
19DIVING PROTEST PROCEDURE
- At the coaches’ meeting, a meet committee must be designated who will hear and decide all protests.
- The committee shall consist of five coaches to be selected at the coaches’ meeting. An alternate coach
should also be identified in the case one of the initial coaches’ student athletes is involved in the
protest. The site representative and head referee will serve as advisors (non-voting).
- If a protest should occur, the protesting coach should find a member of the meet committee to turn
in the protest form.
- Protests must be received within 30 minutes of the final diving results of that particular event.
- A member of the meet committee must call Will Hopkins (317-917-6779) to communicate what the
protest entails.
- The meet committee will review and vote on the protest; if a protesting coach is involved with the
meet committee, they should remove themselves from discussion and voting.
- The meet committee will communicate back to the protesting coach what action they agreed upon.
All protests are final once action has been taken.
20NCAA DIVING PROTEST FORM
This protest form must be complete in full and submitted to the meet committee not later than 30 minutes after the final
diving results of which the protest is applicable. Protests must be acted upon by the appropriate meet committee. The
decision of this committee is final. Any protest before, during or immediately after a race should be resolved at the earliest
opportunity, but not later than immediately following the current session.
