At the beginning of March, the woman’s national team tournament in Gzira (Malta) ended the qualifications for the European Water Polo Championship in Split. The men played their qualifications for Split 2022 in January, and most of the women’s national team qualifying tournaments were played in February, concluding with the already mentioned tournament in Malta in early March.
This way we got almost all the participants of the Continental Water Polo Summit in Croatia, in Split from August 27 to September 10 this year. A total of 28 national teams (16 men’s and 12 women’s) will take part in the competition at the Spaladium Arena. At the moment we know 26 teams (15 men’s and 11 women’s).
