it is my pleasure to welcome you all in Budapest, Hungary, for the 17th FiNa World Championships, to be held from July 14-30, 2017. in the beautiful magyar capital, our best athletes will be gathered in this vibrant metropolis for two weeks of unforgetta-ble moments in a unique environment.

this success could not be reality without the devoted support of our 207 national member federations. their work and dedication to our sport deserves a competition like the one being prepared in Hungary. the elite of swimmers, water polo players, synchronised swimmers, pool and high divers, and long distance swimmers will show to the world that the steps undertaken by our members in the five continents in terms of enhancement of the fina disciplines in each country are a source of progress.

in Budapest, we will also hold our technical Congresses (in all six aquatic disciplines, and masters), aimed at updating the rules in our sport, and our General Congress, where a new Bureau will be elected for the period 2017-2021 and changes in our Constitutional, General and facilities rules will be voted by the participating delegates.

in this occasion, i express my gratitude and appreciation to the organisers of the 17th FiNa World Championships who have made their best to provide an outstanding competition: high quality venues, involvement of the local authorities in the promotion of the event, supporting marketing and sponsoring programmes. my recognition goes as well to the Host Broadcaster of the championships, for the top level tV produc-tion and the spectacular images of our sport viewed world-wide.

i hope this Water polo team leaders’ Guide can help you and your team during the Championships - it has been prepared to give you all the useful information and practical procedures to facilitate your mission.

i wish to the participants in the championships all the luck and the best to win.

Welcome address by the President of hungary,dr. János Áder

Water connects

it is an honour for me to greet the readers on the occasion of the 17th FiNa World Championships as the president of the republic of a country renowned worldwide for the outstanding achievements of its athletes and for its hospitality.

We Hungarians are proud that this time Hungary will be host-ing a rendezvous for the best of the world’s aquatics athletes, countless enthusiastic supporters arriving from numerous countries of the world, excellent trainers, dedicated support staff, committed sports diplomats and media professionals.

aquatics fans will now be turning their attention to the events in Budapest, the Queen of the danube and in Balatonfüred, the legendary, picturesque spa resort on the shore of lake Balaton. these fantastic venues offer the hope of uniquely exciting events for everybody who believes in the power of achievement, competitive skills and fair play.

Water reflects on many things that are truly important to us in our lives. the river connecting the largest number of countries in europe and the largest lake of Central europe both lend a symbolic significance to the venues of these World Champion-ships. the enthralling and dignified currents of the danube and the majestic and gentle rolling of the Balaton both convey the same emblematic message nowadays: sport connects us. Just like water connects.

dr. János Áderpresident of the republic of Hungary

Welcome address by the President of the organising Committee and minister for National development,

dr. miklós sesztákdear friends of sports, dear athletes,

“sport is primarily an intellectual concept,” said our nobel prize winning physician, albert szent-Györgyi. this idea isespecially true in regard to the17th FiNa World Championships. the World Championships are not only special sporting events, they also have outstanding intellectual significance. they symbolise the unity of a nation and a trust in common goals and a hope for a common future. it is a symbol of our love for sport, professional expertise and co-operation. We have shown that, to us,nothing is impossible; we can do anything.

Hungary has already broken a record with the 2017 finaWorld Championships and the subsequent masters World Championships. While other host countries have had seven years to prepare, Hungary had only two years to build the central competition venue, the duna arena, to complete the related projects and to prepare Budapest and Balatonfüred for the event.

We intend to make this one of the greatest and most spectacular sports events in the history of World Championships.

thousands of engineers, construction workers, sports andmedia experts have worked and are still working on a spectacular show to amaze everyone.the World Championships will give pleasure to the entire nation and the successes will be shared by all. the people’s love will turn the event into a community experience, whether spectators are cheering on the athletes at the venue or watching the exciting competitions on the giant screens or on tV.

“sport without soul is nothing. and the soul without sport is the same,” wrote miklós mészöly. i hope that our sport-loving nation will be the soul of the 17th fina World Championships.

in this spirit, i wish all the participants a fair and successful competition and all the spectators a lasting experience.

dr. miklós sesztákminister for national developmentChair of the organising Committee

as the leader of the host city as well as the main sponsor of the event, i welcome you to the 17th fina World Championships.the World Championships is the greatest sporting event that Hungary has ever organised and the number of visitors may also show that it will be the greatest event held in Hungary from every aspect.We have seriously committed ourselves to this great challenge because, in general, organising a global sports event takes four to five years. as Guadalajara in mexico stepped down, we had just two years to prove our capacity and ability to host a sport event of such stature.Budapest intends to outstrip the previous two aquatic World Championships in terms of figures. in Barcelona in 2013 and in Kazan in 2015, almost two and half thousand athletes competed, hundreds of thousands of spectators cheered them at the venues and the tV broadcasts reached almost four billion viewers. now, athletes from nearly 200 countries will arrive in Hungary for the World Championships, approximately 350,000 spectators are expected at the event and our goal is to reach at least five billion people through broadcasting.during the World Championships, Budapest can exhibit its most attractive image. the World Championships represent an invaluable and priceless asset to the image of our country. not only the capital city but also the main competition venue, the duna arena, will gain, not only during the competitions, but also in the subsequent decades, when it becomes a stronghold of leisure sports. the aquatic arena and all the related projects, including the installation of a sewer network on margit island, the most pleasant and most popular recreational park in Budapest, and the construction of a promenade on the danube embank-ment between the competition venue and the city centre, are all parts of a complex urban development programme.i also hope that we shall be able to witness the breaking of records and some Hungarian victories in Budapest, which we hope will become a friendly and hospitable home for supporters.
