“I WANT TO SWIM MOM!” WHAT DOES MAKE A CHILD OF 8 TO 12 YEARS OLD WANT TO SWIM
Abstract
The aim was to identify and analyze the reasons that lead children from 8 to 12 years old to start and remain in swimming, the participation of parents/guardians in choosing this sport and the contribution of teachers to their engagement. Twenty children from a swimming academy in the city of Itabirito (MG), their guardians and teachers were interviewed. Mothers are the main encouragers in the insertion of children in swimming, but they are maintained by identifying the playful methodology of the classes. A small percentage of those responsible are not completely satisfied with the structure of the place and the organization of classes, however, most appreciate the commitment of teachers, who seek to be attentive to the interests of parents and children, in addition to keeping up to date professionally.
