It was during this period that the International Swimming Federation (FINA for short) was founded in 1908. In 1896, the first modern Olympic Games set up three swimming events. However, there were no uniform competition rules and standards for swimming competitions at that time. In order to effectively cope with this situation, the International Swimming Federation (FINA for short) was officially established in 1908.
Before the establishment of the International Swimming Federation, the Olympic swimming competitions included some unconventional events, such as the diving in the 1900 Olympic Games, the 200m obstacle swimming, and the water long jump in the 1904 Olympic Games. The Olympic swimming competition is also diverse: the 1896 Olympic swimming competition was held in the sea, the 1900 Olympic swimming competition was held in the Seine River, and the 1904 Olympic swimming competition was held in the United States St. Louis In a small lake. until London Olympic Games The 100m swimming pool has only been used.

The primary goal of this association is very clear: standardize and unify the rules of swimming, diving and water polo competitions; Review, confirm and update world records; To guide Olympic swimming, diving and water polo competitions.
In the past 40 years, swimming has made a series of outstanding achievements, launching the World Swimming Championships (1973), the World Cup (1979), the World Short Pool Swimming Championships (1993), and the Diving Series Grand Prix (1994). Synchronized swimming became an official Olympic event (1984). At the same time, the application of high-tech equipment in swimming competitions, especially in electronic timing equipment, has made great progress. The swimming events have expanded rapidly, and a variety of new events have emerged, such as Masters and Open Waters.

Yang Fugang told reporters that all regions attached great importance to the Games, and the top leaders of the Provincial Sports Bureau had basically come. With the leadership's attention, mass sports such as dragon boat, water skiing and motorboat could get more investment.

The village secretary, the county head and the director of the provincial sports bureau all came to the stadium to cheer for them. Majiang Chen Xiaoqiong, the head of the county, told Xinhua News Agency: "In such a national contest, the Majiang Dragon Boat Team has well demonstrated the spirit of the farmers' brothers to fight bravely and unite. In the future, we will continue to vigorously support the development of farmers' sports activities."
Let more people enjoy water sports
Feel the freshness of water sliding across the skin, and try to ride on the stimulation of the water. Water sports have unique sports charm, which is also the dream of many ordinary people. Whether sailing, water skiing, dragon boat or motorboat, water sports are not only highly ornamental, but also increasingly popular among the general population.
Guizhou Provincial Sports Bureau Director Cai Guoxiang said in an interview that, with the improvement of people's living standards, returning to nature has become a fashionable social concept, and water loving and playing with water are also becoming the way of life and entertainment that people pursue. In this sense, holding a water sports meeting is a good idea, which helps people understand and approach water sports.
Cai Guoxiang said that in fact, there are still many water sports projects suitable for public participation to be developed. For example, there is a "bamboo float" project in Guizhou, where pupils can participate in the competition after half a month of training. Some experts at the water games told reporters that the threshold of many water sports is not high. It is needless to say that dragon boat and swimming, such as water skiing, can be played by ordinary people after one day of training. Canoe slalom seems dangerous, but ordinary people can still play on the track with low difficulty. Therefore, there is a huge space for the popularization of water sports.
