Extractions: Ancient SCUBA Divers Jump In! Swimming is one of the oldest activities known to man. Ancient carvings show that people have been able to swim for over 4,000 years. A stone picture from Iraq, dated from 869 BC, shows warriors swimming using inflated animal bladders and breathing tubes like a SCUBA diver would use an air tank and snorkel. Swimming became popular as a sport in the 19th century. Early swimming strokes included the front crawl, the backstroke and the sidestoke. In those early days men and women swam in separate pools. Swimsuits were also very different than today. In those days swimsuits were made of long, baggy and heavy wool. Today swimsuits are made of lighter fabrics and are more streamlined. Swimming as a sport Swimming is a great way to have fun to staying in shape. All you need is a safe place to swim. Some people swim at the school or community pool - some really lucky people have pools in their back yards - and some swim at the beach. Competition pools (where swim meets are held) are usually 25 to 50 metres long. Competition pools usually have bottoms that can be adjusted for a variety of events, like synchronized swimming and water polo. Click here to take an up close look at the competition pool.

Extractions: 2000 World Cup Series - Final Scoring In compliance with the FINA constitution and it's fundamental objective, the promotion of swimming and its other disciplines, in 1973 FINA started the World Championships (Belgrade, YUG) that, since then, ranks alongside the Olympic Games as one of FINA's most important competitions. It was at this time that the swimming family searched for an opportunity to organise a competition in the winter season (for the northern hemisphere) and and also to organise a competition in the short course.
Amateur Swimming Association history OF THE AMATEUR swimming ASSOCIATION The first recorded meeting of representativesof swimming clubs was held in the German Gymnasium, London, on 7th http://www.britishswimming.org/about/history.asp
Extractions: The first recorded meeting of representatives of swimming clubs was held in the German Gymnasium, London, on 7th January 1869, when it was resolved that an Association composed of the London Swimming Clubs should be formed and have as its objects the promotion and encouragement of the art of swimming. Later that year the title of "Metropolitan Swimming Association" was assumed and a code of rules was drawn up in 1870 for the management of the Games of Football in the Water, proving that some sort of Water-Polo was then played. The only National Championship in 1869 was the One Mile. The 100 yards was instituted in 1878 with the 500 yards Freestyle, the latter being cancelled in 1935. In 1873 the name was changed to that of "The Swimming Association of Great Britain", although it did not include Scottish clubs; in fact, an application in 1878 from an Association of Scottish Clubs to join was not entertained. In 1880 Horace Davenport became the Association's President, and this was a turning point in the history of the Association. The previous year, a race known as the "Lords and Commons Race" was handed over by members of Parliament who had presented a trophy for it, and is now known as the Long Distance Championship, swum for many years in the River Thames. At this time there were nine London and eleven Provincial clubs in the Association, but this number gradually increased each year.

Princeton Swimming And Diving - History Of Success Princeton Women's swimming and Diving. Princeton swimming and Divingis about two things Tradition and Pride. We have a Tradition http://www.princeton.edu/~pucsdt/Womens/history.htm
Extractions: Special Thanks ... he Men's Page A History of Success P rinceton Swimming and Diving is about two things: Tradition and Pride. We have a Tradition of team, of friendship, of support, of fast swimming, of loud cheering, of hard work of BLACK and of ORANGE. Those two colors are worn with Pride as they symbolize every tradition that this team stands for. We are teammates and we are competitors, and when we bring those together we are unstoppable. Princeton became fully coeducational in the fall of 1969, and it did not take long for women to begin organizing themselves into athletic teams. Swimmer Jane Fremon 75 and diver Cece Herron 74 were the pioneers, competing on an exhibition level in mens meets during the 1970-71 season. The two went on to win enough points between them to give Princeton a fifth-place finish at the Eastern Womens Swimming League championships, with Fremon winning three events. A team was formally organized the following year, under three-year captain Carol Brown 75. The team got off to a perfect 8-0 start and finished third at the EWSL championships. The star of that team was Cathy Corcione 74, who had actually retired from swimming following her performance at the 1968 Olympics. In that first year she set national records in two of the three events in which she won EWSL titles.
