NBSC Swimmers

NBSC is part of the United States Swimming (USS) age group swimming program. USS is America's largest program of guided fitness activity for children and young adults. Age group swimming builds a strong foundation for a lifetime of good health, by teaching healthy fitness habits.

Physical Development
Many physicians and pediatricians consider swimming an ideal activity for developing muscular and skeletal growth. Why do doctors like it so much?

Swimming develops high quality aerobic endurance, the most important key to physical fitness. In other sports an hour of practice may yield as little as 10 minutes of meaningful exercise. Age group swimming teams use every precious minute of practice time developing fitness and teaching skills.
Swimming does a better job in proportional muscular development by using all the body's major muscle groups. No other sport does this as well.
Swimming enhances natural flexibility by exercising all major joints through a full range of motion.
Swimming helps develop superior coordination because it requires combinations of complex movements of all parts of the body, enhancing harmonious muscle function, grace, and fluidity of movement.
Swimming is the most injury-free of all sports.
Swimming is a sport that will bring fitness and enjoyment for life. Participants in Master's Swimming programs are still training and racing well into their 80's.

Intellectual Competence
In addition to physical development, each of us can develop greater intellectual competence by participating in a guided program of physical activity. Learning and using swimming skills engages the thinking processes. As we learn new techniques, we must develop and plan movement sequences. We improve by exploring new ideas. We learn that greater progress results from using our creative talents. Self-expression can be just as much physical as intellectual. Finally, our accomplishments in learning and using new skills contribute to a stronger self image.
