HOW TO BECOME A SCUBA RANGER?
It’s easy. Scuba Rangers is for any active kid age
8 to 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. But 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? And then
you go into the pool with your equipment!
Step 3 Blue Ranger –
You will learn new diving exercises in the pool. Like, how to
float in the water. Can you believe that? You don’t drop to the
bottom, but you don’t go up either!
Step 4 Silver Ranger –
Together with the other children you play cool games under water
while wearing your diving equipment. And this way you’ll practise
all the diving techniques you have learned before.
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 admire you for it!
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
oath you are a true Scuba Ranger.
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 name is of that 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, or maybe even your parents, see and hear from you how
much fun diving can be, they might want to try it too!
