Should there be world records for short course (25) yards?

I know that we are nearly the only country that has SCY pools but wouldn't it make NCAAs, USMS Spring Nationals, and other big yards meets more fun and potentially drive more interest internationally. Or, would it then prompt the 33 1/3 yards pools or the 50 yards pools to then start asking for WR's too?

... or we just start focusing on SCMs and LCMs in the US, like the rest of the world?

  • I'd actually like to see more swim meets in non-regulation pools. It would put more emphasis on the racing aspect, and help teach pacing and tactics I think it would also be a good for swimmers' mental health because it would remove the pressure of comparing every performance to one's personal best.
