French swimming federation representatives visit Kazan

The French delegates toured the Kazan Arena Stadium where swimming events will be held during this summer's international aquatics event. There they were met by Secretary General of the Executive Directorate for Sports Projects, Ranko Tepavcevic. "The French national team is most likely to be one of the most numerous ones at the Championships. It has athletes who aim for the tournament's medals. Our guests needed to make sure that they will be provided with the most comfortable environment - as far as both sports venues and places of accommodation are concerned," he said. 

Two more visits to Kazan are scheduled for late spring: USA Swimming's delegates will pay their second visit in May and the FINA TC inspection team will come to check the host city's readiness in April.
