The swimming pool course of the formal swimming competition is divided into 50m (long pool competition) and 25m (short pool competition). However, the current general swimming competitions are mainly based on the 50m long pool, and the competition level is high and more competitive. In fact, when building a standard swimming pool, the actual length will generally be greater than 50m or 25m, because before the competition, the staff will install electric cleats at both ends of the pool, and the electric cleats also have a length.
The swimming pool used for the Olympic Games and FINA World Championships is 25m wide and is divided into 10 lanes. The side lanes are marked as No. 0 and No. 9, and the inner lanes are No. 1-8 respectively. However, although there is a 2.5m buffer area on both sides of the pool wall, the waves caused by the action will still cause some resistance to the side runners. In the formal competition, the personal scores of the athletes and the preliminary and semi-final results will be used as the distribution channel The second important basis is that the closer the middle track is, the less interference the athletes receive.
Generally, swimming pools used for international standard swimming competitions cannot be less than 2m deep. It is generally recommended to build a 3m deep swimming pool, because a standard swimming pool with a depth of 3m can also be used for synchronized swimming competitions, so that one pool can be used for multiple purposes.
The lane line is the lane divided by the water line in the swimming pool. Both the Olympic Games and the FINA World Championships have 10 lane lines to separate each lane. This seemingly ordinary lane line plays a very important role in the competition. Important role. First of all, it can reduce the effect of waves, so that the waves generated by the athletes during the forward process will not cause too much influence on each other, and if the athletes accidentally choke or cramp, they can hold the lane line to relieve it and adjust their state.
