The European Swimming League LEN has made an important decision at the LEN Bureau meeting in Cascais, Portugal, which will surely please every coach and every European team. From the European Championships in Split (August 27 – September 10), each team will be allowed to use 15 players for the entire competition. For each match, the coach can still register 13 of them (no later than two hours before the start of the match), but he can change the lineup from match to match. In the last 10 years, the rule was that each national team can register only 13 players before the start of the competition, without the possibility of replacing them in case of injury or illness.
