This coloring page shows two swimmers in a competitive backstroke race. They swim in separate lanes with detailed lane ropes between them. The lead swimmer has one arm reaching overhead and legs kicking. The second swimmer is right behind. Flags overhead mark the turn end of the pool. Perfect for kids who love swimming sports.

Fun facts

Backstroke is the only stroke swum on your back facing the sky.
Swimmers use alternating arm pulls and a flutter kick in backstroke races.
Flags above the pool help backstrokers know when to flip for the wall turn.

Coloring tips

Use blue for the pool water around the swimmers' splash lines.
Color lane ropes in bright yellow or red to match real swim meets.
Make swimsuits different colors for each swimmer to show the race.
