The women's 3 metre springboard, also reported as springboard diving, was one of four diving events on the diving at the 1936 Summer Olympics programme.[1]
The competition, held on Wednesday 12 August, was split into two sets of dives held on the same day:
- Compulsory dives
- Divers performed three pre-chosen dives – a running straight somersault forward, standing header backward with pike, and running straight isander-half gainer.
- Facultative dives
- Divers performed three dives of their choice (from different categories and different from the compulsory).
Sixteen divers from nine nations competed.
