What is Lifesaving?
-The world's most demanding, multidisciplinary sport.
|
Lifesaving is a world class sport involving not only swimming in the pool, but swimming in still water and in the sea. However, lifesaving would not be the world’s most demanding sport if it just involved swimming. Running, sprinting, throwing, diving, kayaking, surfing and resuscitation skills are only a few of the areas involved. Lifesaving is much more than swimming, in a way that challenges the individual, not only physically but mentally.
The combination of skills and physical activity create a community based, competitive sport.
