While this is true, it originated as a far more violent sport with even harder obstacles. The sport’s origins come from northern Europe, specifically the British Isles. Water polo originated as a type of rugby that was played under the water with violence, injuries, and near-drownings as part of the game. The Scots then developed more civilized rules and developed the concept of passing the ball above water while submerging the ball was considered illegal. The sport grew in popularity and spread all across Europe. The Hungarians then took up the sport and developed much of it to the way we play today. They developed the dry pass, meaning that the ball was to never touch the water; this revolutionized the sport and allowed the Hungarians to establish a water polo dynasty. ater polo is one of the oldest Olympic sports. It was included in the 1900 Olympic Games. WOne of the most violent games in history was the 1956 Gold Medal Match between the USSR and Hungary.

  • BSA Swim Test Certificate
    BSA Swim Test Certification A BSA Lifeguard or Red Cross Lifeguard MUST administer this test. A copy of their certification card MUST accompany this form. Incomplete forms, or absence of proof of certification, will void the Swim Test. Note to Lifeguard: It is very important that you administer this test exactly as stated. Do not make exceptions for any reason. There are three classification levels in the BSA Swim Test. The first is SWIMMER, which will allow the scout to swim in all areas, boat in open areas of a lake, and participate in waterskiing and open sea activities. The second is BEGINNER, which will permit limited boating and swimming. The third is LEARNER, which will permit wading and boating only with qualified accompaniment in safe watercraft. SWIMMERS must demonstrate the following: Jump feet first into water over the head in depth, level off, and begin swimming. Swim 75 yards in a strong manner using one or more of the following strokes: sidestroke, breaststroke, trudgen, or crawl (no dog-paddle); then swim 25 yards using an easy, resting backstroke. The 100 yards must be completed in one swim without stops and include at least one sharp turn. After completing the swim, rest by floating for one minute. BEGINNERS must demonstrate the following: Jump feet first into water over the head in depth, level off, swim 25 feet on the surface, stop, turn sharply, resume swimming as before, and return to the starting place. LEARNERS are those who cannot pass the test required of SWIMMERS or BEGINNERS. CERTIFICATION I attest to the validity of the Swim Test administered by me on ______________________, 20____.

  • Basic Rules- the Four Competitive Swimming Strokes Are​ Freestyle
    Basic rules- The four competitive swimming strokes are freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly. The combination of all four ​ ​ strokes is called individual medley or IM. In freestyle events, the competitor may swim any stroke. The stroke most commonly used is sometimes called the crawl, which is characterized by the alternate stroking of the arms over the surface of the water surface and an alternating (up-and-down) flutter kick. Backstroke consists of an alternating motion of the arms with a flutter kick while on the back. On turns, swimmers may rotate ​ to the stomach and perform a flip turn after taking 1 freestyle arm pull, and some part of the swimmer must touch the wall. The swimmer must finish on the back. ​ ​ The breaststroke requires simultaneous movements of the arms on the same horizontal plane. The hands are pressed out from in front of the breast in a heart shaped pattern and recovered under or on the surface of the water. The kick is a simultaneous somewhat circular motion similar to the action of a frog. On turns and at the finish, the swimmer must touch ​ the wall with both hands simultaneously at, above or below the water surface. Pull, breathe, kick, glide. ​ Some consider the butterfly to be the most beautiful of the strokes. It features a simultaneous straight arm recovery of the arms over the water combined with an undulating dolphin kick. In the kick, the swimmer must keep both legs together and may not flutter, scissors or use the breaststroke kick. Both hands must touch the wall simultaneously on the turns and ​ the finish.

  • Water Polo Team to Competitive Level: Chapter 1 Page 1 of 1
    Taking a Young Inexperienced Water Polo Team to Competitive Level: Chapter 1 Page 1 of 1 WATER POLO Learning and Teaching the Basics CHAPTER ONE Taking a Young Inexperienced Monte Nitzkowski Water Polo Team to Competitive Level I'm often asked, "Coach, what's the quickest way to become competitive in this sport? We have a new program with young players, and we're getting clobbered." There are four basic axioms which must be followed if you wish to make young teams quickly competitive: CONDITIONING : Get your players into top physical condition. This is the easiest of the four axioms to achieve. Most of the athletes probably have a swimming background and are already in pretty good shape. Hit them hard with a conditioning program which features considerable basic swim training, a lot of ball conditioning and conditioning for quickness. You might not get them in better shape than your opponents, but "equal shape" is good enough. BALLHANDLING: Spend a lot of time on ballhandling. All players need to continue to develop their ballhandling skills—for young players it's a must. Passing is the name of the game. If a player can't pick up the ball and pass it accurately, his/her team will be in constant trouble. Ball control is essential and without it, success is impossible to achieve. Along with basic ballhandling skills, at the earliest stage of development, young players must be taught how to draw a foul. Most often, opponents will press against inexperienced teams. If players can't draw a foul and pass from the free throw, they will find it extremely difficult to move the ball into scoring position.

  • Swimstart Level 5
    lesson plans LEVEL FIVE LESSON PLANS Assistant Swim Teacher Award Manual Page 91-106 Pre Assessment: Learners must demonstrate the following skills before beginning Level 5 9 Relaxed Breaststroke timing demonstrating one complete Breaststroke stroke linked to another by a glide 9 Demonstrate 25m Freestyle with controlled arm actions and breathing 9 Demonstrate 25m Backstroke with controlled arm action and relaxed breathing Level Five Learning Intention To develop endurance in Freestyle, Backstroke and Breaststroke swimming with increasingly accurate technique and to increase Water Safety awareness including safe dives. N.B. Lessons 1-3 focus on Freestyle Lesson 4 focus on Sidestroke Lessons 5-6 improve Backstroke efficiency Lessons 7-9 focus on Breaststroke Lesson 10 requires deep water You may need to “pick and choose” different progressions for different group members as they progress. Level Five Learning Outcomes Learners should be able to consistently demonstrate the following criteria: 5.1 25m Sidestroke 5.2 H.E.L.P. 5.3 Clothed Survival 5.4 Group Safety Initiatives 5.5 50m Freestyle 5.6 50m Backstroke 5.7 50m Breaststroke Extra and Optional Unassisted Entries for Deep Water The following lesson plans are suggested programmes for completing the Level Five Objectives. There are many variables to take into consideration. • Diving should only ever be taught in pools deeper than 1.2m unless supported from inside the pool. • Teachers running lessons for 10min may have to omit some activities whereas teachers with 30min lessons may need to be creative and add further activities which enhance or support the activities suggested. • You may at any time extend your swimmers learning.
