Swimming career

[edit]

Born on 19 August 1990 into a family of sportsmen and encouraged by his father, Jamal Chavoshifar engaged in swimming as a child. At first he chose the breaststroke and won the first medal of his life in one of its styles. But he gradually inclined to the butterfly stroke, and finally began his specialty, that is the backstroke, at the age of sixteen.[1]

In his first abroad competition, Jamal managed to break the 50m and 100m backstroke records of Iran at the Malaysian Competitions in 2008, when he was eighteen.[2]

Chavoshifar holds the Iranian records of 50, 100, and 200 m events of the backstroke in short course pools, as well as the records of 50 and 100 m events of the same style in long course pools. He has been continuously improving his records during his championship period.[3][4][5][6][7]
