History
Diving was an integral part of the European Aquatics Championships since its introduction in 1926.
A separate Diving Championships were first held in 2009 in Turin, and featured 10 events: individual diving from 1-meter springboard, 3-meter springboard and 10-meter platform among both men and women, and synchronized diving from 3-meter springboard and 10-meter platform among both men and women as well. The team event was added for the second edition of the Championships in Turin. Synchronized mixed diving events on 3-meter springboard and 10-meter platform were added for the fifth edition of the Championships in Kyiv.
Winners in the Aquatics Championships event and the separate Diving Championships are both considered European champions.
A country that receives the most total points during the Championships officially becomes the European diving champion. The number of points is determined by results of all finalists, not only the medal holders. The 2017 European diving champion was Ukraine.[1]
The sixth edition was held between 5 and 11 August 2019 in Kyiv.
