Abstract

Highlights Males in the 10‐and‐under age group were 1.16%–2.63% significantly faster than females in the 50 yards (yd; 45.7 M), 100 yd (91.4 m), and 200 yd (182.9 m) freestyle, 100 yd backstroke, 50 yd breaststroke, 100 yd butterfly, and 100 and 200 yd individual medley (IM). The individual fastest time for a female was faster than for a male in the 50 yd (45.7 m), 100 yd (91.4 m), and 500 yd (457.2 m) freestyle, 50 and 100 yd backstroke, 50 and 100 yd butterfly, and 100 yd IM. The performance of the fastest under 10 years old female swimmers may not be representative of the overall sex‐based differences in prepubertal swimming performance.
