ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Masters swimming

Masters swimming is like swimming lessons, but for grown-ups! Just like how kids take lessons to learn how to swim, grown-ups can join masters swimming to improve their swimming skills.

In masters swimming, people who already know how to swim get to practice and get better with a coach. The coach makes sure that everyone is doing the right thing and helps them improve their technique. They also give the swimmers different things to do, like swimming faster or using different strokes.

Sometimes, people in masters swimming compete against each other, but it's not required. Some people just do it for fun and exercise. And the best part is, you can do it for your whole life – you're never too old to join masters swimming!
