  • 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____.

  • 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.
