India will host the 11th Asian Swimming Championship at Ahmedabad’s Naranpura Sports Complex from October 1 to 15, as announced by the national federation. This will be the first time the event is held in India, with swimmers from Japan and South Korea expected to compete.
“We have received in-principle approval from the Gujarat government and Asia Aquatics. The MoU is in its early stages and should be signed by March or mid-April,” Swimming Federation of India Secretary-General Monal Chokshi said.
