Daley's 'twister' was seen in qualifying and the final in Sheffield

World diving champion Tom Daley will be in action on home turf this weekend at the annual Armada Cup which is being held in Plymouth.

Daley is just one of several top divers set to grace the event, with Plymouth's Brooke Graddon also set to feature.

The Armada Cup runs from Thursday evening through to Sunday, with numerous clubs from across the UK taking part.

Daley finished second in the British National Cup at the start of February.

The 15-year-old debuted his new twister dive at the National Cup in Sheffield, but had to settle for second in the 10m final behind 2004 Olympic silver medallist Peter Waterfield.

The competition at Plymouth's Central Park pool gets underway on Thursday evening with the boys' B platform, with the finals being held on Sunday.
