Team Canada: Represent Canada on the World Stage

Every year, AIDA International brings together freedivers from around the world for World Championships in pool and depth disciplines. Team Canada is made up of Canadian athletes selected to represent our country on this international stage. It is an opportunity to compete alongside top athletes, learn, build connections, and experience the incredible camaraderie of the global freediving community.

 

Athletes of all levels are encouraged to apply.
