The Andorran Swimming Federation (FAN) presented the calendar for the upcoming competitions its different teams will take part in today in the auditorium of Andbank, the Federation\u2019s chief sponsor.<\/p>\n
Alfonso Maltrana, the Federation\u2019s technical director and coach, began the event by listing the international competitions it has historically participated in. He then presented the schedule for the competitions this summer, a packed one in terms of the quantity and quality of the competitions.<\/p>\n
The first competition will be the World Championships in Budapest, due to take place from 16 to 23 June. The swimmers will be Bernat and Tom\u00e0s Lomero, who will race in the 50m and 50m butterfly and 100m and 100m freestyle categories, respectively.<\/p>\n
