What is the lane size for a junior Olympic pool?

[Edit]

Answer

A pool that is used for the junior olympics (i'm assuming that's what you're referring to) is either 25 yards or 50 meters long, depending on the country you're in. In the US, the JO size is 25 yards.

Answer

There really is no Jr. Olympic pool. If one is referring to a pool that is used for the AAU Jr. Olympics, the pool dimensions are the same as full grown Olympics. If one is referring to a pool that is smaller than an Olympic pool (Jr. in size) Then a short course pool is usually found. Here are the standards used for Olympic pools. I found this on the usaswimming.org website. Follow the following link.

Answer

The lane size for any pool used in USA swimming championships and international competition is 8 feet 2 1/2 inches or 2.5 meters from divider to divider with approximately .45 meters or (1 foot 6 inches)of additional open water for the outside of the outside lanes.
