News Summary:

On April 6, 2026, World Aquatics, the international governing body of swimming, faced a $40 million damages claim from the International Swimming League (ISL) in an antitrust case, but a jury awarded only $1 in damages following its verdict. The jury found that the International Swimming League proved World Aquatics and one or more of its member federations refused to deal with ISL, yet it did not prove the agreement to boycott had no purpose other than disadvantaging the league. The legal team representing World Aquatics successfully shifted the case's focus from liability to ISL's own failures, highlighting the league's shortcomings in people, experience, and expertise. The verdict form did not provide an explanation for the $1 damages award calculation.
