Also could you include the depth I was thinking about something like between 4 and 5 meters that's between 12 and 16 feet( yes i think metric and no i'm not in the US)
I hope that would eliminate any problems with diving in etc

lol 12-16 feet deep? That is impractical. I'm assuming the pressure at that depth would be such that the walls would have to be very thick down there. Might cause problems with the thrust of the pool walls against the underground soil.

6-8 feet should be fine for any diver who isn't completely retarded, drunk, or Manute Bol. Pretty sure everyone knows when you dive into a pool to keep your arms outstretched so they hit the bottom before your grille does.
