At the 1932 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, four diving events were organized, two for men, and two for women. The competitions were held from Monday, 8 August 1932 to Saturday, 13 August 1932. [1]
The events are labelled as 3 metre springboard and 10 metre platform by the International Olympic Committee, [2] and appeared on the 1932 Official Report as springboard diving and high diving, respectively. [3] The platform events included dives from both 10 metre and 5 metre platforms, but, from now on, the springboard events were reduced to dives from the 3 metre board. [4]
