Consider the following statements regarding the standard dimensions of a competitive swimming pool: 1) The minimum lane width in a standard Olympic swimming pool is 3 meters. 2) The water temperature for competitions must remain between 25°C and 28°C. Which of the above statements is/are correct?
Only 2 is Correct
As per World Aquatics (formerly FINA) facility rules, an Olympic pool is 50 m long and each lane is 2.5 m wide, with extra space outside the outer lanes.
So Statement 1 is incorrect – the minimum lane width is 2.5 m, not 3 m (3 m is the recommended depth).
Statement 2 is correct – the rules require the water temperature to be kept between 25°C and 28°C during competition.
Hence, Only 2 is Correct.
