Abstract

Purpose: Through the investigation and analysis of the current situation of safety risk management in short-term swimming training for teenagers, to put forward strategies and suggestions for risk prevention and risk management, to improve the awareness of safety risk prevention of swimming training managers, instructors and participants.

Methods: Literature analysis, interview, questionnaire and mathematical statistics were used.

Results: It was discovered that there were many security risks in the management of short-term swimming training for teenagers: (1) There are security risks in the management of swimming venues and facilities. (2) The lifeguard qualifications do not meet the required standards. (3) The qualification level of swimming training coaches is not high. (4) There are hidden dangers in the safety risk management of swimming training teaching organization, such as the large scale of teaching class system and the lack of safety education in classroom organization. (5) Swimming training managers lack safety training awareness. Simultaneously, an analysis of the factors influencing the safety risks associated with short-term swimming training for teenagers was conducted. This primarily encompasses (1) safety aspects concerning swimming training facilities; (2) safety risk factors pertaining to swimming coaches, such as their qualifications and workload intensity; (3) safety risk factors associated with swimming training institutions; (4) factors impacting the safety risks faced by swimming training managers; and (5) factors affecting the safety risks encountered by students undergoing swimming training.

Conclusion/Discussion: (1) There were problems in the safety of the hardware facilities of some swimming training institutions. (2) There were safety problems in the health prevention of swimming training institutions. (3) Swimming training institutions had security risks in personnel management. (4) Swimming students' self-rescue abilities were weak. (5) The water safety education of parents with children enrolled in swimming classes was insufficient. We put forward the following countermeasures and suggestions: (1) The hardware facilities at swimming training institutions have been strengthened and improved to ensure optimal conditions for training. (2) Health facilities are staffed with specialized personnel and equipped with relevant treatment options to ensure the safety and well-being of all participants. (3) Staffing levels at venues have been increased to provide adequate support for all activities. (4) Self-rescue skills are now incorporated into daily teaching practices, promoting a culture of safety among students. (5) Efforts have been made to enhance students' awareness of water safety through various educational initiatives.
