INTRODUCTION By Mustapha Larfaoui, FINA President

Year after year, the FINA Swimming World Cup has had a strong impact on the development of the Sport, and certainly a considerable influence on two important decisions made by FINA some years ago: the recognition of world records set in 25m pools (back in 1991) and the introduction of the FINA Swimming World Championships in 25m pools. Its first Super Final took place in Palma de Mallorca, in 1992. Through the FINA Swimming World Cup swimmers have more opportunities to compete at high level, thus increasing their international experience; swimming enjoys a greater exposure and coverage by the media and, thanks to the quality of results, which often impress the public opinion, the attention of the sponsors – whose role is of paramount importance in sport today – may be increased. The current edition of the FINA Swimming World Cup has a similar programme to the previous one. Swimmers will visit the five continents with Africa first and then Oceania, Asia, Europe and the two last meetings in America. All meets will take place solely in 25m swimming pools (short course). This document is aimed to help the journalists in their coverage of the major events. The Meet Organisers, the Meet Speakers, the Team Managers and other Officials and the Swimmers themselves will find the information contained in this publication of interest.

CALENDAR Eight meetings will be held in the following continental zones:

Africa / Asia / Oceania, Europe and Americas

HISTORICAL OVERVIEW

Past, Present and Future

In compliance with the FINA constitution and its fundamental objective, the promotion of swimming and its other disciplines, in 1973 FINA started the World Championships (Belgrade, YUG) that, since then, ranks alongside the Olympic Games as one of FINA's most important competitions. It was at this time that the swimming family searched for an opportunity to organise a competition in the winter season (for the northern hemisphere) and also to organise a competition in the short course.

During the 1970's and the 1980's some federations were able to stage successful meets such as the Arena Festival (Bonn, GER), the Speedo Meet (Amersfoort, NED, 50m), the Coca Cola International (London’s Crystal Palace, GBR, 50m), the NOK Schwimmfest (East Berlin, GDR, 50m) and the Meet de la Ville de Paris (FRA).

In 1988 the organisers of some existing competitions - Toronto (CAN), Indianapolis (USA), Paris (FRA), East Berlin (GDR), Bonn (GER), Gothenburg (SWE), Venice (ITA) and Barnett (GBR) - gathered in Rome and decided to give birth to the first Swimming World Cup Series with a prize money allocation for winners to be implemented in early 1989. The first two meets were organised in North America in late 1988.

The first competition labelled “Swimming World Cup” took place in September 1979 at Tokio’s Yoyogi Swimming Pool (50m). Eight teams representing different regions of the world competed for supremacy: The United States, Canada, Sweden, the Soviet Union and Japan took part with their respective national teams while the remaining represented Oceania (Australia and New Zealand), Latin America and the rest of Europe. The best performances were set by American teenagers Cynthya Woodhead and Mary T. Meagher (only 15 at that time). Woodhead set the 200m freestyle world record in a time of 1:58.23.

The FINA Swimming Technical Congress, in Perth, in January 1991, approved the recognition of world records set in 25m pools. In this same year FINA became involved in the World Cup. FINA and the Organising Federations agreed to establish six categories for both men and women, according to stroke and distance:

* Sprint: 50m, 100 and 200m freestyle; * Distance: 400 and 800 or 1500m freestyle; * Backstroke: 50, 100, 200m; * Breaststroke: 50, 100, 200m; * Butterfly: 50, 100, 200m; * Individual Medley: 100, 200, 400m.

In 1992, for the first and only time, FINA held a “Super Final", in Palma de Mallorca (ESP), at the conclusion of the World Cup series. Only swimmers who had qualified through the series were admitted. Palma de Mallorca was also chosen as the venue for the 1st FINA Short Course Swimming World Championships in 1993.

In 1991 and 1992 World Cup meets were held in St. Petersburg (RUS) - Leningrad at that time - and while this venue withdrew from the World Cup series in 1993, China joined in with Beijing. In 1994 Shanghai (CHN) and Hong Kong were also added.

On 31 August 1994, the FINA Technical Congress in Rome decided to recognise the world records set in the 50m backstroke, breaststroke, butterfly and the 100m individual medley (SCM).

In 1998, the World Cup has for the first time a stage in Australia (Sydney) and in Brazil (Rio de Janeiro) and since Australia and Rio welcomed a meet in every edition.

In the 1999/2000 and 2000/2001 Series the ranking system was abandoned and the final classification was based on Individual Events. In order this competition to be more competitive and spectacular, FINA decided to implement a new model for the 2001/2002 and following editions of the Swimming World Cup. Since, the scoring is based on a FINA Points Table: only the best swim achieved by a swimmer is counted.

During the edition 2003/2004, for the first time a meet was organised in Africa (Durban) and in Korea (Daejon). The edition 2005/2006 will start in Durban, South Africa on November 11-13, 2005 and will finish in Belo Horizonte, Brazil on February 10-12, 2006.
