Kazan to host international men's water polo tournament

Four national teams will clash against each other at the international tournament that will take place in Kazan between June 12 and 14. It will be yet another test event to check the host city's readiness in the lead-up to the 16th FINA World Championships.

The competition will bring together four national teams. Apart from Russia, the tournament's host, water polo lovers will have the opportunity to watch the live action featuring the squads of Spain, China and Georgia. The matches will be held in the Burevestnik Indoor Swimming Pool which will also be a competition venue for water polo events during the FINA World Masters Championships in August 2015. 

The teams will arrive in Kazan on July 11, the day before the start of the tournament, and will leave the day after the competitions end. All meets will be supervised by four independent referees who will also get assistance from 10 local judges.
