  KEYWORDS: Awards, Incentives, Competitive Swimmers

  ABSTRACT: The study investigated the extent to which respondents liked awards they received during swimming competitions in Kenya and in retrospect if the awards motivated them to continue competing in swimming. Mann-Whitney test revealed a signif-icant difference between active swimmers and coaches; between former swimmers and coaches and no significant difference between active and former swimmers on their liking of the awards. More former swimmers (Male-70.7%; Female-77.3%) did not like the awards and proposed that the awards be more appropriate with the age of the swimmers to motivate them to continue competing.
