The Sport of Competitive Swimming
Athletes of all ages and sports compete in the Atletic International Games. In its 14th installment, this athletics event has been given a new spin with a new format. The organizers, Alete’s World and T&A International, have decided to transform the traditional relay events into a chess-like championship, with each player playing the role of a king or queen and the objective being to score the most points. In doing so, they hope to attract more attention to the sport and hopefully encourage more athletes to participate in the sport.
Athletes who participate in the Atletic International Games must be part of a full-time athletic scholarship. Participants are required to maintain a certificate from their respective school’s athletic department. Once accepted into an athletics program, all athletes are assigned a unique username and password and may use the Atletic University website as their primary account. The website will serve as their primary shop for all purchases, and players can view all items on their list by clicking on the relevant link.
Participating Athletes A total of 14athletes have qualified to take part in the competition, which includes women and men of all ages, from novice to professional competitive swimming. The Athletes have been split up into separate teams, each with a different name such as Underwater, Recreational, Academy or Elite. Each team competes against each other in a round robin format until the team with the most wins is deemed the champion. Points have been awarded for every winning game and for the team’s overall wins, with the winner being declared the tournament’s winner. Points for each race that a team has participated in also count towards the final standings.
Rules and Regulations Unlike other aquariding events, in the athletic field of the Atletic International Games, there are no official rules to follow. Each race is judged based solely on skill and stamina, with the event organiser making the decisions on whether a particular competitor is to be disqualified. Every competitor is required to adhere strictly to the rules of the race, which include the time of race, what form it is in, what equipment is to be used, how it will be run and any other technical information. There is no diving allowed, and officials may disqualify competitors for diving too often during a race.
Course The courses of the Atletic Games vary year by year, but they generally all offer the same basic courses which the swimmers must master. However, some races include new water sections, or include rapids. This allows the athletes to overcome natural obstacles that might otherwise prevent them from completing the swim. For example, in the mens’ category, the race includes rapids in the rapids section in order to add something more difficult to the swim.
Although the Atletic Games have been held regularly for over a hundred years, they have only just started offering live online streaming for the past twelve years. In this way, spectators can now catch the action from almost anywhere in the world, including television locations in the United States, Europe and beyond. Because the sport is so popular, the Atletic Sports Broadcast Network has been broadcasting the events for years, and now offers audiences around the world the opportunity to watch any matches that are taking place. This allows those who are unable to attend the actual sporting event the opportunity to enjoy it through the help of live streaming video.
