Our Club

Our club was established in 1954 by a small band of adventurous divers with a common aim - just to dive! It was then known as the Hull Frogmans Club. Eventually it became Branch 14 of the British Sub-Aqua Club. We now have around 120 members including two of the founders; one of whom, in his 80's, is still diving.

Heinke Trophy

The prestigious Heinke Trophy was won by our club in 1997. It is awarded annually to the BSAC branch judged to have done the most to further the interests of its members and of the BSAC.

Have a try dive

If you’re not sure whether scuba diving is for you, why not come down to the pool for a try dive. You will be given 1:1 attention by one of the clubs qualified instructors. 

We can also provide Inspiration Rebreather try dives. 

To arrange a try dive contact our Diving Officer or Training Officer.  Here is a list of contacts

New to the sport

We offer a comprehensive training schedule, which can take you from your first experience on scuba equipment, all the way to Advanced Diver. On starting your training, you will be allocated an Instructor, who will stay with you for the duration of your pool training. Your training will be carried out at the pace that suits you, allowing you to build up your confidence before venturing into open water

Already Qualified.

We also welcome divers who are already qualified. If required, we can help you further your qualifications or even cross-over from other training agencies. If all you want to do is dive, then you’ve come to the right place! The club owns its own 5.5m RIB, air compressor and even nitrox blending facilities. But, that’s not all, with approximately 120 members, you’ll have access to around 8 other boats!

Diving

During the summer months, diving is usually in the North Sea, whether it be on any of the dozens of life-encrusted wrecks, or scenic dives around the East Yorkshire coast-line. Throughout the year, trips are also organized to places such as Oban, St. Abbs, Scapa Flow and the Red Sea.
