Richard is the best diving coach I have had in my diving career. He tailors to each athletes needs inside of the sport and outside. He shows up to every practice with the ambition to push the athletes in a positive manner and allow them to express what they want or believe they need to work on. The team culture is one in a million. This team is a family and the athletes contribute not only athletically, but also academically, in the community, and within groups in athletics. Richard holds the team to a high standard academically and pushes his athletes to achieve things outside of the sport as well. One thing I would criticize about him as a coach is a slight lack of communication in some circumstances. I believe he has improved in this, but I think it would still be helpful to work on it a little further. Overall, Richard is a one of a kind coach that anyone would be lucky to work with. I highly recommend him and have enjoyed working with him over the past few years.

Coach that is more focused on the big picture and all around aesthetics of dives rather than building based on smaller technical corrections. spends a lot of time programming practices that consist of optionals at a high volume with not a lot of basics. If you are an athlete who has always trained opps year round and is willing to do a lot of them in a practice then :) If you are an athlete who focuses on technique and needs a lot of basics before doing their opps then :(
