Study Title: The Reality of Scientifically Based Sports Selection for Young Swimmers (Ages 8-12) Study Objectives: To raise awareness among coaches about the importance of the sports selection process in developing the level of sports: - To understand the correct selection process for young swimmers. - To assess the level and experience of coaches in selection. - To identify sporting talents early. - To understand the reality of sports selection in clubs and associations. Study Problem: Is the selection process conducted according to standardized and controlled criteria and principles? Is the selection process for young swimmers based on sound scientific principles or is it random and based on something else? Is the lack of professional and scientific competence and training of coaches the reason for the neglect and failure of the selection process for young swimmers? Study Hypotheses: The selection process for young swimmers is not subject to precise scientific standards and principles. The selection process for young swimmers is not based on precise scientific standards and principles, but rather is random. The professional and scientific competence and training of coaches play a significant role in the neglect and failure of the selection process for young swimmers. Field Study Procedures: Sample: Consisting of 29 swimming coaches from active clubs in Djelfa. Spatial and Temporal Scope: The study was conducted at swimming pools in the municipality of Djelfa between January 3, 2026, and March 10, 2026. Methodology: The descriptive method was used. Tools Used: Questionnaire. Results: The coach's role is based on some skill tests and close observation, and lacks scientific foundations in the selection process for young swimmers aged 8 to 12 years. The selection process for young swimmers aged 9 to 13 years takes place under conditions... Difficult and lacking in essential elements. Swimming coaches for the 8-12 age group do not rely on scientific principles in the selection process. Swimming coaches for the 8-12 age group do not meet the required academic standards in the selection process. Suggestions: - Encourage and motivate coaches to focus on younger age groups of swimmers, especially talented ones, to benefit from their abilities and raise the level of swimming locally and internationally. - Follow sound and standardized scientific principles when coaches select young swimmers. - Work to provide all the means and equipment that facilitate the preparation and selection process and familiarize coaches with their use. - Conduct periodic medical examinations and consider these results during the selection process. - Raise awareness among coaches about using standardized test batteries based on scientific principles for selecting young swimmers, with specific guidance on developing selection skills. - The necessity of conducting training courses and workshops for coaches on how to use scientific principles in the selection process and develop their skills in this regard. -Providing specific guidance to coaches on how to improve their claims in the selection process, including the use of modern analysis techniques and periodic performance evaluation
