All conditions to be created to hold FINA World Championships in Kazan. Part 1

27 September 2013, Friday
All conditions needed for holding the successful FINA World Championships will be created in Kazan. In many respects, it will be thanks to the Team 2013, which brilliantly organised the 27th Summer Universiade. This statement was made by President of the International Swimming Federation (FINA), Dr Julio C. Maglione, during the inspection visit to Kazan.

The first visit of the FINA inspection team to Kazan lasted three days. The delegates inspected the sports facilities, where best athletes from around the world will compete for medals at the FINA World Championships in 2015. Today, on September 26, President of the Republic of Tatarstan Rustam Minnikhanov had a meeting with representatives of the International Swimming Federation. Later, in an interview with reporters, Mr. Maglione highly commended the facilities and said that they meet all the requirements for a successful delivery of the World Championships. 

"We are talking about all venues, including the Kazan Arena Stadium, which also complies with all requirements. This is a stadium that can host not only football matches, but swimming competitions as well. Its capacity is very important for us: there will be spectators from around the world," said the FINA President.
