Chapter 2 Swimming 21

History of Swimming Swimming can be dated back to the Stone Age, but did not truly become an organized sport until the early 19th century. An ancient discipline Prehistoric man learnt to swim in order to cross rivers and lakes – we know this because cave paintings from the Stone Age depicting swimmers have been found in Egypt. Swimming was also referred to in Greek mythology. Dawn of a sport Swimming was not widely practiced until the early 19th century, when the National Swimming Society of Great Britain began to hold competitions. Most early swimmers used the breaststroke, or a form of it. Discovering the crawl Based on a stroke used by native South Americans, the first version of the crawl featured a scissor kick. In the late 1880s, an Englishman named Frederick Cavil 22

travelled to the South Seas, where he saw the natives performing a crawl with a flutter kick. Cavil settled in Australia, where he taught the stroke that was to become the famous Australian crawl. Olympic history Swimming has featured on the programmed of all editions of the Games since 1896. The very first Olympic events were freestyle (crawl) or breaststroke. Backstroke was added in 1904. In the 1940s, breaststrokers discovered that they could go faster by bringing both arms forward over their heads. This practice was immediately forbidden in breaststroke, but gave birth to butterfly, whose first official appearance was at the 1956 Games in Melbourne. This style is now one of the four strokes used in competition. Women’s swimming became Olympic in 1912 at the Stockholm Games. Since then, it has been part of every edition of the Games. The men’s and women’s programmers are almost identical, as they contain the same number of events, with only one difference: the freestyle distance is 800 meters for women and 1,500 meters for men. In front crawl the swimmer is in what is called a prone position which means almost horizontal in the water. This is a streamlined position. The arms and legs are alternating and continuous. The arms will recover over the water and the legs kicking in an almost vertical plane. The body does roll a little on its longitudinal axis and the head turns to the side to breathe. The hands follow a series of sculling type actions the accelerate in the water as they sweep downwards, inwards and finally upwards in the water. Styles of Swimming Freestyle Freestyle swimming technique The streamlined power and lack of resistance makes freestyle swimming technique a very fast swimming stroke. It also does not have a specific competitive event it is swum under freestyle and is used up to 1500 meters. Front crawl is use in competitive swimming more than any other stroke. 23

Breast Stroke Breast-stroke swimming/ Introduction Breast-stroke swimming is one of the oldest of the four competitive strokes as well as being the slowest. This stroke is easy to learn as back stroke and front crawl. It is very popular with adults and I always teach adults Breast-stroke first if they cannot swim at all. Breast-stroke swimming has two variations. The first one is the flat stroke, this is when the swimmer swims with shoulders stay in the for most of the stroke as well as the body staying in a fairly flat and stable position. The second variation is a high lift stroke, this where the shoulders are lifted high out of the water in an upward and forward motion as the in sweep of the arms stroke is made. Butterfly Swimming the butterfly/ introduction Butterfly is the most recent developed stroke of the four strokes. Swimming the butterfly became a recognized stroke in 1953. It is the second fastest stroke of all the strokes. It is mainly used for competitions rather than a recreational stroke. It is swum the least and taught the least. Swimming the butterfly can be very physically demanding doing the full stroke but learning and some practices can be done without too much physical exertion. What makes this stroke more difficult in comparison to the other strokes is that the recovery of the arms has to clear the surface of the water at the same time. You need good timing of the arms and legs, flexibility, grace and power are needed. You are basically imitating the action of a dolphin and have to totally forget the idea of pushing and pulling like the other three strokes. There is a basic check list of the requirements needed if you are thinking of swimming the butterfly: You can easily do an underwater push and glide. (This means that you start on the side of the pool and on your front go under the water. Then put both of your feet against the wall of the pool. With arms out in front of you push and glide without kicking legs or using arms.) 24

Back Stroke Swimming backstroke/ introduction Swimming backstroke is the third fastest stroke competitively, originated from an old English style of swimming backstroke and has developed over the years and has evolved into an alternating and more effective action. This action gives the backstroke less resistance with continuous propulsion. The speed of the backstroke is limited by the restrictive range of movement of the shoulders as well as the ability/inability to use the power in the chest muscles to the best desired effect by the roll of the body which will be discussed in more detail in the chapter about the upsweep of the arms. When swimming backstroke it is usually developed from a simple back paddle just kicking legs on the back, once this achieved then the backstroke swimmer can begin to develop the arms as long as the streamlined body position is maintained. Swimming backstroke can be a first choice of stroke for the beginner because it free from the water and does not really require a breathing pattern so there are little or no difficulties. The only problem can occur is that some swimmers do not like lying on their back due to fear of the water. 25

Chapter 5 Tennis 48

The History of Tennis Tennis originated from a 12th century French game called paume (meaning palm); it was a court game where the ball was struck with the hand. Paume evolved into jeu de paume and rackets were used. The game spread and evolved in Europe. In 1873, Major Walter Wingfield invented a game called Sphairistikè (Greek for \"playing ball) from which modern outdoor tennis evolved. Games of racket and ball (including real tennis in Great Britain, royal tennis in Australia, and court tennis in the United States, all of which are the same game and played indoors) originated from a 12th and 13th century French handball game called jeu de paume (game of the palm). In 1873, Major Walter Wingfield invented a game called sphairistikè, from which modern outdoor tennis evolved. Tennis has a long history, but the birth of the game played today is thought to have taken place in England. 11th century beginnings The earliest recognizable relative to tennis, as we know it, was \"jeu de paume\", played in 11th century France. Played in a monastery courtyard, the game used the walls and sloping roofs as part of the court and the palm of the hand to hit the ball. Tennis overtakes croquet By the late 19th century, the popularity of lawn tennis had overtaken croquet in England. For this reason, the All England Croquet Club embraced the sport and designated certain croquet lawns to be used for tennis. It was this natural supply of venues combined with the already existing framework for a racquet game that resulted in the birth of the modern game in England. An international sport In 1913, lawn tennis was becoming increasingly popular worldwide. Therefore it seemed natural that the existing National Tennis Associations should join forces to ensure the game was uniformly structured. An international conference was held between 12 nations in Paris and the International Lawn Tennis Federation (ILTF) was created. Professional dilemma Tennis has a long Olympic history but withdrew from the programmed after 1924. It did not return as a medal sport until 1988. Professionals are now welcome to compete, and the Olympic competition includes men's and women's singles and men's and women's doubles. 49
