Aesthetics, harmony, and athleticism in the water - synchronised swimming offers plenty of entertainment for the audience, which will be admitted to the events free of charge space permitting. We are looking forward to the entire spectrum of performances that will include elegance and/or humour.
The competitions are held in solo, duet, trio, team and combi. A team has a minimum of 4 members and a maximum of 10 members. The competitions for solo, duet, trio and group are comprised of a technical as well as a freestyle presentation. The competitions will sanctioned by the German Federation in conjunction with FINA, and will be sanctioned by International Gay and Lesbian Aquatics.
Synchronised swimming will be held at the Landesleistungszentrum Schwimmen of the Deutsche Sporthochschule Cologne, at the Sportpark Muengersdorf. About half of sports events involving about half of all Gay Games athletes will take place at this major sports hub, so swimmers are sure of a large audience, and will of course be able to enjoy a variety of other sporting events during breaks!
