Allen was trampolinist and diver who turned to coaching after he completed his competition career. He coached at Auburn and Parramatta Diving Clubs as well as trampolining at Revesby and South Bankstown YMCA for over 50 years.

His memory of stories from years gone by have kept many entertained over the years at diving gatherings.
Allen will be remembered for his road trips around NSW for country championships but especially to Lightning Ridge, providing much needed education and support to the enthusiastic locals to get diving started in the amazing pool they built.

Rest in Peace Allen.
