In order to get high achievements in each tournament, each year, the District Center of Culture and Sports held 1-2 swimming competitions, attracting many athletes from 10 to 15 communes and towns in the area to participate in the competitions. Thereby, they can explore new elements to participate in the district's training and talent courses. At present, the swimming team of the district has about 30 athletes. During 10 days before each tournament, under the guidance of the coaches, the athletes are trained in techniques, practice advanced exercises to improve their physical and psychological aspects in competition.

 Sharing with us, Bui Thanh Cong in Kim Truy commune said: "If swimmers are required to distribute stamina in a race at cross- river swimming competitions, at the distance swimming competition, athletes need to show their agility and precision. Therefore, to get high achievements in each tournament, I myself as well as the players in the team always improve our skills; enhance the training to achieve the best performance. With the enthusiastic guidance from the coach, I am also often trained by experienced athletes, such as Bui Van Binh, Bui Van Lanh who shared valuable experiences after each tournament.

 In addition, in order to equip children with drowning prevention skills, on the occasion of the annual summer, Kim Boi District Culture and Sports Center took the initiative in developing plans to open two swimming lessons for pupils at Boi Cau village (Kim Boi commune) and Que Bo village (Kim Tung commune) attracted about 50 learners. This has created a useful playground for pupils, as well as seeking new talents to participate in the tournaments.

 "like other localities in the province, Kim Boi district is facing many difficulties in swimming development, the system of facilities to meet the training needs of athletes is lacking; the service places for training and competitions have not been built. In addition, due to the limited budget, some athletes having won high achievements in many tournaments have not been paid any attention, motivation and timely reward. Therefore, Kim Boi District really needs to get more support from different levels of government to develop their swimming content to get higher achievements, "added Mr. Bui Duc Nghia, Deputy Director of Kim Boi District Culture and Sports Center.
