Team USA Wins World Aquatics Team Trophy at 2025 World Junior Swimming Championships

The official “team championship” of World Aquatics meetings, the World Junior Aquatics Championships Trophy, has been won by the United States.

The scoring system aims to take into consideration each nation’s overall performance and awards the top 16 finishers in each individual event and the top 8 finishers in each relay event. This is not the same as the medal table, which is frequently the center of attention but gives a gold medal a lot of weight while giving a 4th, 5th, 6th, or 7th place finish none.

The United States is still the world’s deepest squad, despite their recent decline in medal table domination. They were 368 points ahead of China and 110 points ahead of Russia’s Neutral Athletes “B.” The girls played a significant role in this, scoring 513 points to defeat Neutral Athletes ‘B’ (361) by 152 and China (363) by 150. Neutral Athletes “B” finished 53 ahead of the USA (343), 113 ahead of Japan (296), and in first place for the boys with 397.

Ten of the 22 medals won by Team USA were gold. Nine of the ten American gold medals were won by the females, who made significant contributions.
