Swimming is not very popular among sinkies. Swimming competitions organized by PA kena cancelled because very few people signed up even though the fee was only like $3. Then those $15-25 biathlon where you swim 400m in the pool and run 3-5km also poor turnout. Sinkies rather spend $100 to run 21,42km. Siao one

During NS BMT swimming test, I realized that I onli remembered the stroke but no form so swim veri slow.

Most taught by parents or school courses, if parents/training program never proactive teach, high chance cannot swim for life. But there will be a few who will self-learn some time during late teens or early adulthood.

If hit 40yo still cant swim, then chances are forever cant swim for life.
This.
