WELCOME MESSAGE

FINA PRESIDENT

It is my pleasure to present you the 22nd FINA World Junior

Diving Championships to be held from July 23-29 in Kyiv,

Ukraine.

This competition, which was last held two years ago in Kazan

Russia, will showcase an artistic, spectacular and breath-taking

discipline which has developed tremendously over the recent years: The inclusion of

the Team Event and the mixed events in the World Championships Programme, the

popularity of the yearly FINA Diving World Series and the Grand Prix, the well-

attended FINA Judges Schools and Clinics are some of the numerous examples of this

development.

The FINA World Junior Diving Championships play a critical role within this context:

this event gives a unique opportunity to the youngest talents to be revealed and creates

awareness among the youth about this beautiful and highly technical discipline.

Most importantly, this event is a qualifier for the Youth Olympic Games, to be held in

Buenos Aires (ARG) in October this year.

The competition will be held for the first time in Ukraine’s capital Kyiv this summer

and

I am sure that with the support of spectators, media representatives and sponsors, these

championships will be very successful and will constitute a milestone in the history of

the competition.

I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude to the Ukrainian

Diving Federation for the tremendous work and full commitment in organising the 22nd

FINA World Junior Diving Championships in this vibrant and young city.

I wish the best of luck to all the participants!

Dr. Julio C. Maglione

FINA President
