Austria, Israel and Spain make official their Roma 2022 teams
Six days to go to the most important European aquatics event in 2022 that will take place in Rome at the Foro Italico and Lido di Ostia, with Austria, Israel and Spain announcing their teams.
AUSTRIA
Six women and seven men represent Austria in swimming, one athlete for open water swimming and three men for diving. For artistic swimming, Austria relies on the Alexandri twins: Anna-Maria and Eirini will try to get on the podium again and achieve a better placing after their world bronze medal won in the technical and free duet routine; the third twin Vasiliki, on the other hand, will perform in the individual events.
