FINA World Swimming Championships (25 m)

The World Aquatics Swimming Championships (25m), formerly known as the FINA World Swimming Championships (25m),[1] also referred to as 'short course worlds',[2][3][4] are an international swimming competition staged by the internationally recognized governing body of the sport, World Aquatics (formerly FINA). The championships are staged in a 25m pool, referred to as short course format, and traditionally have been held biennially in alternate years to the World Aquatics Championships.[5][6] Unlike the World Aquatics Championships, only swimming events are staged at these championships (being one of the six disciplines that form part of the World Aquatics Championships).
