Swimming Technique - USA Swimming - Olympic Competitive Swimming
History of Swimming Swimming Technique Swimming Strokes Swimming Equipment ... Women's Swimming Swimming, as a leisure activity has become extremely popular the world over. Swimming is an excellent aerobic exercise that is safer on tendons and joints than most other activities. Providing aerobic and resistance benefits, swimming is also an ideal medium for cardiovascular workouts. Competitive swimming is also a keenly participated sport. History of Swimming Ancient Babylonian and Assyrian wall paintings are indicative that swimming skills were present among humans nearly 6, 000 years ago. A study of ancient civilizations shows that the Egyptians, Persians, Romans and Greeks swam. The restorative power of water has always been recognized by ancient cultures in Rome and Greece. Julius Caesar was noted for his swimming skills. Mosaics from Mid-Eastern civilizations depict men swimming using a dog stroke. Swimming was not included in the ancient Olympic games. Competitive swimming can be traced back to English clubs in the 1830s. The breaststroke remained a popular stroke for leisure swimming. The first person to swim the English Channel in 1875 was Captain Matthew Webb. J. Arthur.

Note the web address has changed to: http://web.wm.edu/so/synchronizedswimclub/ Early Days Synchronized Swimming has an unusually long history of nearly 50 years at the College of William Mary. Originally called the Mermettes, it first existed
in the form of a kinesiology class beginning in 1952. It continued as a class and as a club until it lapsed in 1987. We are sadly lacking in information about what went on prior to 1995. Last year we gave a shortened version of what we at the present time knew of the history of Mermettes. Also, last year the college kindly gave us new mailing labels for all the alums they had identified as previous Mermettes. We hoped to have each send us a history of experiences with the club. The enclosed picture above is from the show done March 3, 1953. Thank you to Susan Rosar Sheehan for the copy of this picture featured in the Richmond Times Leader newspaper.
The 1980's In the early 1980s the club was very successful at the NICA ( National Institute for Creative Aquatics) National Championships. The Duet of Chris and Jen Wrigley won many awards, and the team received many awards as well. For anyone coming to visit these award certificates are still

Hall of Famer Carolyn Waldo won Olympic gold and silver medals in solo and gold in duet with partner Michele Cameron. Then Sylvie Frechette entered the scene and continued Canada’s winning ways.

Making Olympic History New York Times At the first modern Olympics in 1896, Melpomene became the first female to compete, although unofficially, in the games. Women have made many advancements in the Olympic games over the past 100 years and it appears that the 2000 games in Sydney, Australia will benefit them more than ever before. Two new sports have been added to the games, increasing the total number of sports to twenty-eight. In addition, Sydney will incorporate more than twenty new women's events into its program. This is twenty more than were seen in the Atlanta games in 1996. For the first time in Olympic competition, the Modern Pentathlon, Water Polo, and Weightlifting will include events for women. Athletic, Aquatic, and Shooting sports are also adding more women's events. Two sports being added to the Olympic agenda are the Triathlon and Mia Hamm (white jersey) battles for the ball during the U.S. women's 2-0 victory over Norway. (USA Today)

Youth Fact Sheet: Women and Sports - Champions Forever!
Did you know that October is Women's History Month in Canada? This special month gives us a chance to celebrate and learn more about the great accomplishments and contributions of women throughout Canadian history. This year, the theme is Women and Sports - Champions Forever! Today, more than ever before, girls and women can participate in all kinds of sports and physical activities! You don't have to look very far to find examples of women who are sport champions. Who can forget the Canadian Women's National Hockey Team's gold medal victory after an exciting match against their American rivals at the 2002 Winter Olympic Games in Salt Lake City? Believe it or not, not too long ago, running shoes and playing fields were for boys and men only. Girls and women were not allowed to participate in sport activities! Over the years, they had to work really hard to get into the game and play the sports that we take for granted today. A real obstacle race...

History of Synchronized Swimming
in Australia
Synchronized swimming was originally known as water ballet. This art form was popularised by Australia's Annette Kellerman who toured the United States performing her water ballets in a portable swimming tank. After beginning as a competitive event in Canada during the 1920s, it spread to the United States in the early '30s, where a display at the 1934 Chicago World's Fair drew rave reviews. It's popularity soared further when Esther Williams performed in a string of MGM "aqua musicals" in the 1940s and '50s. The competition Synchronized swimming emerged as an exhibition sport at the Olympic Games from 1948 to 1968, then debuted as a full medal sport in Los Angeles in 1984. In Olympic and World Championship events, it is open only to women, with medals offered in two events in the Sydney 2000 and the Athens 2004 Games- duet and team. First Australian Sub-committee for synchronized swimming was set up by the Australian Swimming Union (now Australian Swimming Inc.). Victoria, New South Wales and South Australia were represented. The first national competition was held in Sydney. The solo champion was Jillian Kerwin of Victoria. The duet event was won by Judith and Gail Pettigrew of NSW and the first Australian Open Team Championship was won by Victoria

Few in Atlanta will know his name, but Honolulu's Dr. Allen Richardson will be one of the most important players in the Summer Olympics. He won't swim a stroke or even bring a Speedo, but he has the influence and the power to affect the outcome of any aquatic event. Richardson is the chairman of the drug testing committee for the Federation Internationale Natacione Amateur (FINA), the organization that oversees swimming, diving, water polo and synchronized swimming. Any medal-winner caught using anabolic steroids or other banned performance-enhancing substances will find Richardson an uncompromising guardian of Olympic integrity. Chairman of FINA drug testing for four years, Richardson has been a watchdog for the organization since 1980 and has no problem with lowering the boom again on any competitor or nation trying to skirt international rules of fair play. "I think everyone is interested in having a level playing field," said the 49-year-old Richardson, a Honolulu arthroscopic surgeon married to two-time Olympic gold medalist (1964, 1968) Pokey Watson Richardson.
