    Mandatory swimming lessons will be included in the physical education curriculum in Kazakhstani schools. For now, the project will be piloted in two major cities – Astana and Almaty. This was announced today at a government meeting by Dmitry Balandin, Secretary General of the QAZAQ AQUATICS Federation and Olympic champion. The initiative is being implemented following the example of countries with strong sports training, such as the USA, Australia, and Hungary. This will help develop water safety skills in children from an early age, as well as engage them in sports and a healthy lifestyle.

    Olympic medalist and world-record holder Noè Ponti sits down with Katie in Carmel, Indiana ahead of World Cup Stop 1 to talk Paris (4th/5th and what he learned), the mental reset that set up his short-course world record in the 100 fly, and the rare “Grand Slam” of medaling across Olympics, Euros, and Worlds. He opens up about trusting his gut during a brief U.S. college stint (why he went home after a month), how he handles near-misses (“he won the race, I didn’t lose it”), and the simple word that drives his day-to-day: discipline.
