  • Swimming Stroke Rules
    SWIMMING STROKE RULES An Extraction of SwimmingSA Swimming Rules Rules Updated October 2018 These swimming stroke rules have been extracted from the complete SwimmingSA Swimming Rules for ease of reference and use by Pool Deck Technical Officials. You will note that Multi Class swimming rules have been inserted where appropriate as is the case with FINA and Swimming Australia rules. However, while it is good to be aware of these rules, only the Referee has a list of exceptions for each MC swimmer which forms part of their classification. All Technical Officials, especially IOT and JOS must treat MC swimmers the same as they would treat all other swimmers and report all rule infractions to the Referee even the apparently obvious because, for instance, some swimmer without part of a limb may need to show intent to touch or kick while another may not. Please verbally report all infractions to the Referee. SW 2.6 defines the duties of Inspectors of Turns while SW 2.7 describes the duties of Judges of Stroke. SW 2 OFFICIALS SW 2.6 Inspectors of Turns SSW 2.6.1 Ideally one Inspector of Turns shall be assigned to each lane at each end of the pool to ensure swimmers comply with the relevant rules after the start, for each turn, and at the finish. However, if necessary and approved by the Technical Manager or Referee, a minimum of five (5) Inspectors of Turns shall be assigned to the non-finish end of a 10-lane pool to ensure swimmers comply with the relevant rules after the start, for each turn, and at the finish.

  • INDIVIDUALISING MEDLEY by Bill Nelson INTRODUCTION the Individual Medley (IM) As an Event Was Introduced on the International Scene at the 1964 Olympic Games in Tokyo
    INDIVIDUALISING MEDLEY By Bill Nelson INTRODUCTION The Individual Medley (IM) as an event was introduced on the international scene at the 1964 Olympic Games in Tokyo. A review of Australia’s performance on the international and national scene, both past and present, shows that the IM has not enjoyed the same amount of success as other events. However, I do not believe this can be blamed on the fact that Australia does not possess the talent, but more likely, there has been a greater degree of interest in single stroke training programs. An accomplished IM swimmer must have sound techniques, well-developed speed and a solid endurance base in all four strokes. All disciplines concerned with the pursuit of excellence in the IM should be associated with the concept that it is an event – and not just the collection of four strokes performed in a sequence. The IM is certainly one of the most exciting events on the competition program. With all four strokes systematically involved, the combination of all energy systems, the pacing strategy, and the training necessary to support the international swimmer, the IM events have become very specialised and demanding for both coach and athlete. Therefore the philosophy should be that the race is a total unit, swum with specific individual strategies, and trained and rehearsed as such. Although one has to train all four competitive strokes with equal enthusiasm and discipline, the probability of success will be enhanced if the program is designed around the four individual strokes and the ability to put them together. Over the years, many have discussed the comparison between IM swimming and track and fields decathlon.

During the July 21st FINA Swimming Technical Congress in Budapest, Hungary, the Congress adopted a change to medley swimming rules regarding required body position. For the freestyle distance, the change permits the swimmer to be past vertical towards the back when executing a turn - including after the feet have left the wall. The rule requires that the swimmer’s body must return to the breast before any kick or stroke. 2. Effective September 21, USA Swimming will modify USA Swimming rules as follows: 101.6 INDIVIDUAL MEDLEY — The swimmer shall swim the prescribed distance in the following order: the first one-fourth, butterfly; the second one-fourth, backstroke; the third one-fourth, breaststroke; and the last one-fourth, freestyle. .1 Start — The forward start shall be used. .2 Stroke — The stroke for each one-fourth of the designated distance shall follow the prescribed rules for that stroke, except in the freestyle, the swimmer must be on the breast except when executing a turn. .3 Turns A Intermediate turns within each stroke shall conform to the turn rules for that stroke, except that in the freestyle turn, the swimmer must return to the breast before any kick or stroke. B The turns when changing from one stroke to another shall conform to the finish rules for the stroke just completed, and shall be as follows: (1) Butterfly to Backstroke — The swimmer must touch as described in 101.3.5.

  • George Haines, Swim Maestro: a Remembrance -- May 1, 2006 by Cecil Colwin
    Reprinted with permission by world famous swim historian, Cecil Colwin. Many thanks, Mr. Colwin. Coach George Haines, Swim Maestro: A Remembrance -- May 1, 2006 By Cecil Colwin SACRAMENTO, Calif., May 1. THE World of Swimming is mourning Coach George Frederick Haines, foremost producer of Olympic champions in the history of competitive swimming. George Haines passed away in his sleep early on the morning of May 1, 2006, in Carmichael, California, four years after suffering the aftermath of a severe stroke. Between 1960 to l988, George Haines, coaching maestro of California's mighty Santa Clara Swim Team, produced a total of 53 Olympic swimmers who won 44 gold medals, 14 silver and 10 bronze medals. Enshrined with Haines in the International Swimming Hall of Fame are fifteen Santa Clara Club swimmers, more than from any other club. George Haines was three times Head Coach of the United States Olympic swimming team, and served on the support staff of four other Olympic squads. He was Head Coach of the United States team to the World Championships in West Berlin,1978, a team considered the most successful in United States Swimming history in terms of medals won. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Obituary George Frederick Haines Competitor, Educator, Coach, Patriot March 9, 1924--May 1, 2006 A Modest, Self-Effacing and Beloved Mentor George Haines was one of history's great swimming coaches, and one of the most charismatic, inspiring and beloved mentors to tread a pool deck. His chief attributes were a vast knowledge of the sport, a shrewd strategic sense, and an ability to motivate and produce both male and female champions.

The purpose of this study was to propose a detailed coaching framework incorporating the key elements of a periodized training regimen for a 400 m IM swimmer. This framework was based on the available coaching and scientific literature and the practical experience and expertise of the collaborating authors. The season has been divided in two or three macrocycles, further divided in three mesocycles each (six or nine mesocycles in total), in alignment with the two or three main competitions in each macrocycle. The principal training contents to − develop during the season expressed in blood lactate zones are: aerobic training (~2 mmol·L 1), −1 −1 lactate threshold pace (~4 mmol·L ) and VO2max (maximum oxygen uptake) (~6 mmol·L ). Citation: Hermosilla, F.; González- Strength training should focus on maximum strength, power and speed endurance during the Rave, J.M.; Del Castillo, J.A.; Pyne, season.
