My children commence their swimming lesson about 5 years ago (Haziq 7 yrs, Husna 5 yrs & Hanim 4yrs). Now they are members of Sandakan Swimming Club. Previously, they joined Swimputra Swimming Club (Putrajaya). My husband really committed about our children's involvement in this sport. He believes swimming could gives lots of benefits to our children and he is so true.. even sometimes they feel like being 'pushed' but their dad keep on telling them that they 'have to' until they can swim properly.
Every year, my eldest son will participate few of national swimming events. Not to be the champion of course, but most important, he improve his speed timing. Besides, we want to expose him with competition challenging (learning to compete, win and lose) as well as developing strong self-esteem and confidence. He has shown splendid progress since joining SSC, in fact in the latest event, he could beat his old friends from Swimputra by leading few seconds in front of them (in 1 sec, swimmer could leave 1m of the others). Before, he always left behind.
Here, I share with you the positive impacts on the swimmers..
~ It is a tradition (sunnah) that claimed besides archery and horse-riding
~ Restores freshness body
~ Eliminate stress
~ Strengthens heart muscle and body
~ Maintain beautiful body
~ Most healthy sports activities because it involves the entire body and does not cause risk of injury
~ Highly recommended to those suffering from obesity and a history of asthma
~ Eliminate / reduce the problem of back pain and headache
~ Very good to practice for the 'rehabilitation' (recovery) after injury
~ Good exercise for the slow-learner and also people with disabilities
