XIII FINA Masters World Championships

Saturday July 31, 2010

FINA, the Swedish Swimming Federation, the host cities Göteborg and Borås extend a warm welcome to all Masters Athletes to the XIII FINA World Masters Championships 2010 in Sweden. It is a great honour for us to be chosen by FINA to organize all the FINA Masters aquatic disciplines in 2010; Swimming, Diving, Water Polo, Synchronized Swimming and Open Water Swimming.

The cities of Göteborg, the nearby Mölndal, and Borås have a long tradition of hosting first class international events as World and European Championships in sports like Athletics, Speed Skating, Handball, Speedway, Football, Ice Hockey, Figure skating and 1997 FINA World Swimming Championship (short track).

The characteristic feature of the cities is the concentrated city area with hotels, restaurants, theatres, museum, parks, recreation areas and shopping all located close to each other. The different venues are within walking distance or a short trip with tram.

All this will give competitors from all over the world the opportunities to meet with fellow Masters, enjoy life, visit all the exiting attractions in and around the cities and compete with high performance in there own discipline.

The Organising Committee look forward to seeing you all on the West coast of Sweden, the beautiful summer 2010. We hope we can have the best organized Championships ever and be remembered as "the friendly World Masters Championships in 2010"
