The Oxford Diamond Divas organization was formed in the winter of 2017 and has achieved remarkable growth and success since its beginning. What started with just 31 girls and a need for virtually everything has continued to grow year after year, bringing with it an increasing need for dedicated volunteers. This section of our website is devoted to recognizing those individuals who have given their time, effort, and passion so selflessly to support the organization. These are the people who stepped up without ever being asked and who truly lived by the motto, “It’s for the girls.”

David Flynn

David Flynn was an exceptional volunteer whose dedication played a vital role in the success of our organization. Guided by his philosophy, “it’s for the girls,” David took complete ownership of all field maintenance and ensured the playing surfaces were always safe, clean, and game-ready. His commitment went far beyond expectations—he even built his own field drags to make sure the job was done right. David’s selfless work ethic, creativity, and unwavering focus on providing the best possible experience made a lasting impact, and our organization is stronger because of his efforts.  One last thing, David was also an excellent coach who helped lead his teams to multiple tournament wins a year.
