Mediaguide LEN Ech OWS 2016 Hoorn
LEN EUROPEAN OPEN WATER SWIMMING CHAMPIONSHIP HOORN 2016 MEDIA GUIDE GREETINGS FROM THE LEN PRESIDENT Dear Media Representatives, dear Friends! It is our utmost pleasure to return to the Netherlands, host of a series of great LEN Events, including European Championships in aquatics (2008), short-course swimming (2010), water polo, diving and synchro (2012). Now the continent’s best open water swimmers visit this wonderful country to race for European glory in the city of Hoorn. I think it’s unnecessary to highlight the special connection between the Dutch people and swimming. It’s love at its best. Open water swimming also enjoys tremendous popularity here, one can’t forget that the very first Olympic champion of the discipline is Maarten van der Weijden from 2008. At the last edition of the Europeans, in Berlin 2014 we witnessed two Dutch triumphs in the classical 10km races, courtesy of Ferry Weertman and Sharon van Rouwendaal, so these outstanding athletes have already ensured a great promotion for this meeting. LEN is looking forward to another successful European Championships, completing a kind of hat- trick after the European Water Polo Championships in January and the European Aquatics Championships in May. The fond memories from Belgrade and London are still with us and I am sure that Hoorn will also fit to the line. Though in Olympic years the open water swimmers have to race in a stand-alone meet, I do think we find the perfect date for their continental showcase. One month prior to the Olympic Games, this meet offers a really fine test for the Rio participants from Europe, and great racing opportunity for the other brave swimmers who are doing their best while covering long kilometres.
