Support Arthur's Journey to the 2028 Olympic Trials

Arthur (AJ) Palladino discovered his passion for diving three years ago when he started diving in a local summer program. His love for the sport blossomed quickly, and he eagerly wanted to continue and expand his training. Arthur dedicates most of his free time to training and competing in the sport. His determination and efforts earned him a spot on the 2024 AAU National Team after a stellar performance at the AAU Red White and Blue Nationals in Texas, where he took home three gold medals. This past summer and fall, he represented the US in Rome and Scotland.

Arthur recently competed in the 2025 RWB qualifiers and once again earned the opportunity to join the AAU National Team and represent the US in Croatia this summer. Arthur also competes on the USA diving track and has future meets in Florida, North Carolina, Connecticut, and California with other possible international opportunities.

At just 12 years old, Arthur is already one of the top divers in his age group and dreams of competing at the 2028 Olympic trials.

As a young and dedicated athlete with a bright future, Arthur needs your support to pursue his dreams and goals in competitive diving. He has worked tirelessly to reach the level he is at, and now he has an incredible opportunity to compete in an international diving meet once again. This is a crucial step for him to showcase his talent, gain valuable experience, and continue his progression in his sport.

The costs associated with travel, training, and competition fees are significant, and we need your help to make this dream a reality. Any donation, no matter how big or small, will go directly toward helping him compete on the world stage and bring him one step closer to achieving his goals. Thank you for your generosity and belief in his potential!
