In his welcoming speech, SumDU Vice-Rector Oleksandr BRIZHATY wished the participants numerous victories in water distances.

About 80 boys and girls from 4 teams joined the championship: Center for Water Sports of SumDU Sports Club, Children and Youth Sports School #1, Children and Youth Sports School "Dynamo", Fitness and Sports Society "Dynamo".

Participants overcame the distance of 50 meters freestyle, breaststroke, backstroke, and butterfly, as well as 100 meters - complex swimming. In addition, the 4x50 mixed relay was combined in the competition program.

The winners received prizes. Participants also competed in a quiz. The prize is sportswear and equipment.
