Swimming Clubs
Swimming is the self-propulsion of a person through water, or other liquid, usually for recreation, sport, exercise, or survival. Locomotion is achieved through coordinated movement of the limbs and the body to achieve hydrodynamic thrust that results in directional motion. Humans can hold their breath underwater and undertake rudimentary locomotive swimming within weeks of birth, as a survival response. Swimming is consistently among the top public recreational activities, and in some countries, swimming lessons are a compulsory part of the educational curriculum. As a formalized sport, swimming is featured in a range of local, national, and international competitions, including every modern Summer Olympics. Swimming involves repeated motions known as strokes in order to propel the body forward. While the front crawl, also known as freestyle, is widely regarded as the fastest out of four primary strokes, other strokes are practiced for special purposes, such as for training. ...

List Of 10-meter Diving Platforms
This is a list of diving facilities, especially those including 10-meter diving platforms. This is usually the last feature of an athletics complex required for training and competition in the full program of Olympic swimming and diving. In the United States, a 10-meter platform is required for full NCAA competition, although two schools may hold a dual NCAA meet at a facility lacking one if both schools agree. Organizations that set standards for diving facilities include FINA which governs international competitions, and, in the United States, NFHS, NCAA, and USA Swimming. A typical requirement for indoor facilities is that they must provide clearance above the highest diving board or platform, so that divers do not hit a ceiling structure. The competitive sport of diving has included the 10-meter dive as an Olympic event since the 1904 Summer Olympics. By 1837, six indoor pools with diving boards had been built in London, England. The first diving competition was held in ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
