Summer is officially here, and the heat is only going to ramp up over the next few months. For many people, the most popular way to escape the oppressive temperatures is to find some water to splash in. The culture surrounding water recreation is generations deep and satisfying as well. Grilling out, inviting family, friends, and neighbors to join in the fun, watching a sports game, having some cocktails, and blaring your favorite music, it’s a backyard culture we all know and love.
Competitive swimming offers challenges to people of all ages. A little bit of sleuthing on the internet reveals that the youngest competitive swimmer is 10-year-old Alzain Tareq, a girl who lives in Bahrain. The oldest swimmer is Mieko Nagaoka, aged 100, from Japan. Statistically speaking, you and your children probably fall somewhere in between. But the point is simple – whatever your swim goals happen to be, Streamline Brands offers multiple swimming school franchises that teach, coach, and mentor swimmers of all ages and ability. According to the CDC, swimming ranks fourth in the U.S. for recreational sports and approximately 91 million Americans participate (about 1/3 of the total population).
