The women's 3 metre springboard, also reported as springboard diving, was one of four diving events on the Diving at the 1952 Summer Olympics programme.[1]

The competition was split into two phases held on different days:

  • Preliminary round (29 July) – Divers performed five voluntary dives of limited degrees of difficulty. The eight divers with the highest scores advanced to the final.
  • Final (30 July) – Divers performed five voluntary dives without any limits of difficulty. The final score was the aggregate of the preliminary and final rounds' points.
