Last Tuesday the Dutch Paralympic team came to the InnoSportLab de Tongelreep for measurements. For the first time 3D analysis<\/strong> was included in the test battery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main objective of these tests is to measure <\/strong>and monitor the swimmers’ skills <\/strong>by performing starts, turns, underwater phase, sprints and 100 meter race characteristics so the Paralympic selection was divided in two groups of 5 to 6 swimmers to perform all the necessary measurements in a smooth way. During the testing day everything was recorded for later analysis by the team of InnoSportLab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was an intense day both for the athletes and our own analysts. Especially for Jonne Kapteijns <\/strong>who was in charge of the Paralympic national team measurements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite facing a difficult season full of obstacles, according to Jonne, the athletes gave maximum effort<\/strong>. This is needed to make relevant comparisons<\/strong> with earlier and future measurements. The Paralympic team, including some Paralympic champions, is preparing for their next World Swimming Championships<\/strong> that will take place in Madeira (Portugal) in June 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
