The Swimming Federation of India has announced a list of probables for the upcoming 11th Asian Aquatic Championships 2025, scheduled to take place in Ahmedabad from September 28 to October 1.
A total of 43 swimmers, 21 men and 22 women, have been shortlisted to attend a month-long camp at the Aquatic Stadium, Veer Savarkar Sports Complex in Ahmedabad.
A circular dated August 20 states that “Participation in team camp is mandatory and not joining will lead to exclusion from the team for the upcoming championship”. It further states that it is only a list of probabilities.
“The probables are shortlisted based on their performance at the senior national in Bhubaneswar early this year. In some events, for instance 100m breaststroke and one more, we had two swimmers finishing second. We will have time trials during the camp itself for those events,” SFI secretary general Monal Chokshi told Read on Thursday.
“For the rest of the swimmers, the events will be decided based on their performance during the camp,” he added.
The event will be held at the newly-built Naranpura Sports Complex and will include swimming, diving, water polo, and artistic swimming events.
This is the first time India will host the senior-level Asian Aquatics Championships.
