Diving edit

CAMO's diving club (Le Club de Plongeon CAMO) was formed in 1981 as an official club operated by the City of Montreal. It originally was created to form divers at the "junior" level. Its first major success occurred in 1983 when Sylvie Bernier joined the club. The following year Bernier became the first Canadian to ever win a gold medal in diving, at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.

The next major highlight in the diving club's history came at the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona, Spain. There two of its members, Évelyne Boisvert and Bruno Founier, were members of the Canadian team.

Since then CAMO's diving club has constantly been one of the most successful in Canada, both on the junior and on the senior level.

Since 1998 its International CAMO Invitational, a world-calibre diving event, has attracted major diving stars from around the world to Complexe sportif Claude-Robillard every year.
