Best Answer

Internationally, it is usually 50 meters, but in the US they have both 50 meter and 25 yard pools. In most places in the US, it is a 25 yard pool because the US measuring system uses yards. In competitive swimming, during the school year the 25 yard pool is used, but in the summer the 50 meter pool is used.
