Junior Elements for National Age Groups
May 3, 2018The junior elements for the 15 – 18 Years figures competition at the Swim England Synchronised Swimming National Age Group Championships 2018 are available to download below.
These are different from previous years due to changes from world governing body FINA. The figures for both the U12 and 13 – 15 Years age group follow the FINA Figure Groups (2017-2021).
The Swim England Synchronised Swimming National Age Group Championships 2018 will take place on 24 – 25 November at GL1 Leisure Centre.
Athletes will be required to execute both elements from the compulsory block. They will also execute both elements from either Group 1, Group 2 or Group 3, depending on the outcome of the Figures Draw taking place in the run-up to the competition.
