We have selected our top athletes who have been able to pass our strict national limits for qualification. This Dutch elite of swimmers is looking forward to the competition with many other top athletes from all over Europe. The championships are a great opportunity to find out where we stand regarding the Olympics in Rio this summer. We are proud of our track records related to these Championship in the past years. In Berlin 2014 we won 6 medals. Our athletes dream of new medals but for sure there will be strong competition! Of course they are coached by our professional and enthousiastic staff. All of us, including staff and representatives of the Federation, are looking forward to the European Championships in London. We have wonderfull memories of the venues from the last Olympic Games in London 2012. We are convinced the Organizing Committee, together with staffmembers of LEN-office has done everything possible for excellent competition! Good luck for all!
