Here are some rules and prohibitions in swimming:
False Start: Starting before the starting signal is a false start and results in disqualification.
Interference: Any intentional obstruction or interference with another swimmer's race, such as grabbing or pushing, is not allowed and can lead to disqualification.
Illegal Strokes: Using strokes that do not conform to the rules of the race (e.g., underwater swimming for too long in freestyle events) can result in disqualification.
Equipment Violations: Using illegal equipment or attire that does not comply with the rules (e.g., non-approved swimsuits, goggles in certain races) is prohibited.
Doping: The use of banned substances or methods to enhance performance is strictly prohibited and can lead to disqualification and sanctions.
Unsportsmanlike Conduct: Behaviors such as intentionally obstructing or impeding competitors, using offensive language, or disrespecting officials can result in penalties or disqualification.
Lane Violations: Crossing over into another swimmer's lane during a race can lead to disqualification unless permitted by the rules.
These rules are enforced to ensure fair competition, maintain safety, and uphold the integrity of swimming events.
