Swimming and Diving can be a very exciting sport. It provides close competitions,
team comeraderie, and individual opportunities for success. Swimmers and Divers
can measure their accomplishments objectively against a clock or score-card, and
subjectively against other athletes. Swimming is considered an "ideal"
sport for many reasons. It enhances both aerobic conditioning and anaerobic strength,
and helps athletes develop coordination and flexibility. Both swimming and diving
are among the most injury free of sports. They are also activities which athletes
can continue to enjoy for life at any level - for competition, for fitness, or
just for fun. | PARENT'S
