Abstract
Physiological and anthropometric profiles of a group of successful young swimmers are presented. Anthropometrically the swimmers appear to fall within fairly narrow limits but are physically more mature than their peers. Physiologically there is greater diversity within the group representing perhaps thevarying demands of the swimming events practised. All values for the physiological parameters measured are high compared with children of similar ages. Forthe future is hoped to relate performance in swimming to the variables measured and to assess any changes which occur thus perhaps colouring the profiles presented here. Verf.-Referat
