  • NHRC: “Blanket Ban on Pregnant Women Using Pools Is Discrimination” | MBCNEWS

    The National Human Rights Commission of Korea has determined that uniformly restricting the use of swimming pools solely on the grounds of being pregnant constitutes unreasonable discrimination.

    The Commission recommended that the head of a university sports center in Busan, who had canceled a pregnant woman’s registration for swimming lessons, “establish measures to prevent recurrence.”

    Previously, in August of last year, a pregnant woman who was seven weeks pregnant attempted to register at the swimming pool, but the center canceled her registration, stating that “according to internal regulations, pregnant women are not allowed to take swimming lessons.”

    However, the Commission pointed out that “a pregnant woman’s health condition and ability to exercise vary individually,” and argued that “uniformly restricting the use of the swimming pool without reviewing each case individually is an excessive measure.”

    In 2023 Sam Short EXPLODED onto the international scene, on night one of that year’s world championships he claimed the world title in the 400 freestyle in a historically fast time. Since that breakout year however Short has had a rough couple of years after. During the end of the season in both 2024 and 2025 Short had some illness that impacted his performances, and it seemed like he would maybe be unable to reach the heights that he found in 2023. But NOW during the 2026 Australian Swim Trials Sam Short made a MAJOR statement, putting major pressure on the world record line during the 400 freestyle while swimming a new personal best time.
