title: Study of major factors developed among young swimmers during the practice session and competition causing interference of their performances.
abstract: Swimming is a mass-oriented, well organised and health directed sport which helps to acquire good health for the participants. In our country it is started mostly in the 8-9 years of age and when compared to developed countries the children start the practices around the 3-6 years of age. In swimming like other sports, injury can happen particularly during practice and events competition. The different types of injuries like shoulder joint injury, knee joint injury, red eyes, ear-nose infections, muscle cramps, etc, so happened during swimming practice and swimming competition, affect the performances of the swimmers on many different levels, in both training and in swim meets. This is an ongoing problem for many swimmers, moreover swimming is an intense workout, so it's important to make sure for getting adequate nutrition throughout the day. Proper nutrition and dieting play a large role in optimising swimming performance. A poor diet has a negative effect on athletic performance, as it is also evident in this study where most of the swimmers are suffering from nutritional anaemia as detected by the low level of haemoglobin in their blood and so today the study work has obviously thrown some light on this aspect to highlight the problems and their solutions.
