Silicone Caps A silicone cap has the following characteristics: It is made of flexible silicone. It is a little bit thicker than a latex swim cap. It has a neutral smell. It is more shiny than a latex swim cap. It can sport one or several colours per swim cap. A swim cap made of silicone has the following advantages: It doesn't generate allergic reactions like latex does. It protects your hair well from chlorine. It lasts longer than a latex swim cap because it is thicker and therefore tears less easily. Because it is thicker than a latex swim cap it keeps the head warmer in cold water. It often looks better than its latex or neoprene counterparts because it can sport several different colour combinations and because its finish is more shiny. Swim caps with a more exotic shape (for example the funny ones with a shark fin or the more serious ones with a chin strap) are often made of silicone because the material is better suited to create more complex shapes. You can view silicone caps on the Ying Fa Sydney website. Australian Olympic Medalists in Swimming Australia has competed in swimming at the Summer Olympics since the 1900 Summer Olympics in Paris. Frederick Lane was Australia's sole swimming representative at the 1900 games, winning two individual gold medals. Women's events were added at the 1912 Summer Olympics in Stockholm, with Fanny Durack and Mina Wylie being Australia's first female representatives, winning gold and silver in the 100 m freestyle. Australia has won a total of 58 gold medals in the sport, second only to the United States, who have won 217. East Germany is in third place with 32 golds. Swimming is Australia's most prolific Olympic sport, having been responsible for 58 of Australia's 143 Olympic gold medals. Australia's strongest ever performance in swimming was at the 1956 Olympics on home soil in Melbourne. Australia claimed eight of the thirteen gold medals available, including both relays and a clean sweep of the medals in the 100 m freestyle. Australia has been most successful in the freestyle discipline, with 37 of the 58 golds coming in the stroke. Eight of the gold have come from the men's 1500 m freestyle, the most victories in the event by any country, which has resulted in the event being dubbed "Australia's race" by Australian commentators. Australia's first medal outside of freestyle did not come until 1932 when Clare Dennis and Bonnie Mealing won gold and silver in the 200 m breaststroke and 100 m backstroke respectively. Backstroke is Australia's weakest discipline, with David Theile's two consecutive golds in the 100 m backstroke being the only victories in the discipline For more information about past medalists and the history of swimming in the Olympics visist the AOC website Individual Gold Medal Winners Here are some of the outstanding individual gold medal winners in swimming at the Olympic games. For more information of past winners visit the AOC website. Shane Gould won three gold, one silver, and one bronze, all in individual events at her only Olympics in Munich West Germany in 1972, aged 15. In doing so, she became the first woman to win three individual gold medals at one Olympics all in world record time. She is the only Australian to win five individual medals and three individual gold medals at one Olympics. Ian Thorpe individually won three gold medals in the 2000 and 2004 Olympics. Ian Thorpe and Gould are the most decorated Australian Olympic medalists in all sports. Dawn Fraser won three consecutive gold medals in 1956, 1960 and 1964 in the 100 m freestyle, to become the first swimmer to win any event three times. Murray Rose and Ian Thorpe have both won the 400 m freestyle twice, while Kieren Perkins and Grant Hackett have won the 1500 m freestyle twice. David Theile has won the 100 m backstroke twice, the only Australian to have won a backstroke event. All were won consecutively. 2012 NSW Metropolitan Short Course Championships Ying Fa Sydney would like to wish all our customers who are competing in the NSW Metropolitian SC Championships at Sydney Olympic Park this weekend all the very best. 16 Year Old Swam the English Channel Congratulations to Lochie Hinds.

You will also find the standings of the first three places in all events for men and women at the Olympic Games followed by several classifications which are listed either by the number of titles or medals by swimmer or National Federation. It should be noted that these standings only have an historical aim but no sport signification because the comparison between the achievements of swimmers of different generations is always unfair for several reasons: 1. The period of time. The Olympic Games were not organised in 1916, 1940 and 1944 2. The evolution of the programme.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Analysis of Stroke Rates in Freestyle Events at 2000 Olympics
    ANALYSIS OF STROKE RATES IN FREESTYLE EVENTS AT 2000 OLYMPICS By David Pyne & Cassie Trewin Department of Physiology, Australian Institute of Sport The aim of this article is to examine the patterns of stroke rates of successful swimmers during the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games. Stroke rates of swimmers in the Final (top 8 swimmers) of selected Freestyle events were taken from the Competition Analysis of the 2000 Olympic Games (courtesy of the Biomechanics Department, Australian Institute of Sport). The stroke rates for each 25, 50 or 100m race split and placing in the 50, 100, 200 and 400 m freestyle events were collated. The interesting questions are … Were there differences in stroke rates between the sprint (50 and 100m) and middle-distance (200 and 400m) events? Were there any differences in stroke rates between the Men’s and Women’s events? How much variation in stroke rate was evident between swimmers in the same event? And how much difference was observed between first and last lap stroke rates compared to the average for the event for each individual swimmer. The individual and mean stroke rates for each of the finalists in the 50, 100, 200 and 400 Freestyle events are presented in Table 1. Statistical analysis (data not shown) indicated that there were no significant correlations between average stroke rate on any lap and final placing. The only exception was the Women’s 400m Freestyle where the placegetters had a significantly higher average stroke rate over the race than those swimmers finishing outside the medals. This indicates that there is considerable variation in stroke rate between different swimmers at the Olympic level.

INTRODUCTION At the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, Australia, the U.S. Men's Olympic Swimming Team (the U.S. Team) was defeated for the first time ever 2 in the 4x100 Freestyle Relay' in international competition by the Australians. Many people thought this was a fluke and the United States would come back with a vengeance in 2004, but that was not the case. At the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens, Greece, the U.S. Team could not even manage to walk away with a silver medal, let alone a gold medal, in the 4x100 Freestyle Relay, an event it had once dominated. 3 The U.S. Team lost to South Africa and the 4 Netherlands, respectively, coming home with only a bronze. As one begins to search for answers as to why the United States continues to lose its dominance on the international swimming scene, an analysis of Title IX and its unintended consequences may provide some of the necessary answers.
