| Abstract | Background: Swimming is the only sport providing lifesaving skills and research shows swimming can aid fundamental movement skill (FMS) development. Therefore, this review investigated: (1) how swimming impacts FMS development in children aged 3–11 years, (2) successful tools assessing swimming and FMS, and (3) recommendations appropriate to the UK curriculum. Methods-Results: A systematic literature review using Google Scholar, PubMed, and SPORTDiscuss was conducted to investigate the effects of swimming on FMS development. Methods included database searching, finalising articles appropriate to the inclusion (literature published January 2008 to December 2022, peer-reviewed English language articles analysing the effect of swimming on FMS in 3–11-year-old children, experimental, primary data-based studies) and exclusion (review articles) criteria and identifying relevant articles using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and MetaAnalyses. The Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool assessed data quality and bias risk, whilst thematic analysis synthesised data alongside descriptive results. Ten papers met the inclusion criteria, only 2 originated in the UK, the remaining eight were from: Portugal (3), Serbia (2), Romania (1), Poland (1), and Turkey (1). It was found that swimming does have a significant positive impact on FMS, including significant pre–post testing (p<0.01) and improvements in balance (p=0.0004), running (p=0.014) and hopping (p=0.009) pre- to post-testing. The main themes included: swimming significantly improves FMS development; increased frequency, intensity, time, and type of swimming is needed generally and to improve FMS; a longer intervention duration would be beneficial; the need for a swimming-specific assessment battery; negative comments surrounding intervention assessment tools and intervention duration; and positives surrounding the significant effect of swimming interventions on FMS. Conclusions: This research supports that swimming does significantly improve FMS development. Future research addressing swimming and FMS is essential to improving the curriculum and research is required to establish standardised assessment tools for both swimming and FMS independently. |
