The training is separated in 5 different fun levels.  In each, the kids learn the knowledge and skills needed to become a safe SCUBA diver.  At the same time, they experience how important discipline and team spirit are to reach the goal.  

The safety of the kids is the number one concern.  Therefore SCUBA RANGERS programs are only allowed to be taught by specially trained instructors.  The kid’s training fun takes place in the pool (or under confined water conditions in a protected area) down to a maximum depth of 12 feet.

 

SCUBA RANGERS is not just a diving course, it is a long term activity where the kids can stay active in a SCUBA RANGERS Club! During the club sessions they learn about our environment, get more diving experience, and have a fun time together. They will try underwater photography or night diving with torches in the swimming pool, visit zoos and aquariums, go to the cinema, or take part in other fun, yet challenging activities. 

The SCUBA RANGERS Philosophy

As a children’s outreach organization, the SCUBA RANGERS has a responsibility to promote good values. To keep it simple and fun, we’ve designed the SCUBA RANGERS Star, which defines the five points of a successful SCUBA RANGER:

Proper Knowledge: Rangers must learn the rules of responsible diving.

Proper Skills: Rangers must learn and practice the basic scuba skills.

Proper Equipment: Rangers must learn to use basic scuba equipment, and should own snorkeling equipment, and properly maintain and care for all equipment.

Proper Experience: Rangers should maintain diving proficiency, dive within their limits, and continue to learn more about scuba and water exploration.

Responsibility: Rangers should honor their responsibilities to their families, their community, the environment, and themselves.

HOW TO BECOME A SCUBA RANGER?

It’s easy. Scuba Rangers is for any active kid from ages 8 and 12.  You must have basic swimming skills, be comfortable in the water, and be in good health.

You can become a Scuba Ranger in five steps. During each step, you will learn skills and obtain the knowledge you need to become a true Scuba Ranger. These are the steps:

Step 1 Red Ranger– You will be able to show how good your swimming skills are and you will learn how to snorkel with a mask, a snorkel and fins.  Furthermore, you will be able to demonstrate how to help other children.  The most important thing is having fun!

Step 2 White Ranger– Your instructor will tell you everything you need to know about your diving equipment. What is it for and how to use it?  You then get to go into the pool with your equipment and play!

Step 3 Blue Ranger– You will learn new diving exercises in the pool, like how to float in the water like a fish.  Can you believe that?  You don’t sink to the bottom, and you don’t float up either!

Step 4 Silver Ranger– Together with the other kids, you play cool games under water while wearing your diving equipment.  This way you’ll practice all the diving techniques you have just learned.

Step 5 Demo Ranger– If you are ready, you can show your parents, your brothers and sisters, and all of your friends what you have been learning.  They will be proud of you for it!  It’s time to be a star!

After completing each step, you will receive a reward- you will get a ribbon around your snorkel, so all the other kids know that you already have accomplished a lot. Being a Demo Ranger makes you very special, and after you have taken the Ranger Oath, you are a true Scuba Ranger.

Now, as a Demo Ranger you can become a Scuba Ranger Club member. This is a club especially for you, which enables you to do a lot of fun things and, of course, you will continue diving in the pool.  For example, you can learn what the names of those beautiful fish you saw on TV, or how to search for an object under water in the swimming pool.  Some Scuba Rangers go to the aquarium together or go see a movie about diving.  You can think of so many fun activities which are related to diving!

And you know what the best part is?  If your classmates at school, or maybe even your parents, see and hear how much fun diving can be, they might want to try it too!
