It is my pleasure to welcome all the players, coaches and officials to the FINA Women’s Water Polo World League Super Final 2021 to take place from June 14-19, with the participation of the best eight teams of the preliminary rounds. The 2021 edition of the World League Super Final is highlighted by the participation of the Canada, Hungary, Japan, Russia, USA, Spain, Kazakhstan and Greece, demonstrating the universality of this League and the interest of the cities hosting the final stages of the competition.

The coexistence of powerhouses in the sport with emerging nations that are battling to develop the sport in their territory reinforces one of FINA’s goals over the last years: attract a new and larger public to ensure a wider TV audience for this historical Olympic discipline (the oldest team sport in the Olympic programme).

On this occasion we express our gratitude to the Hellenic Swimming Federation, the Organizing Committee, National Federations, athletes, coaches and officials participating in the 2021 edition of the FINA Women’s Water Polo World League.

Our gratitude also goes to all those involved in the promotion of this event, namely the media representatives, the sponsors. Thanks to the players, coaches and officials, for their hard work and excellent performances which enhance Water Polo’s image worldwide.

To all participating teams in the FINA Women’s Water Polo World League Super Final, we wish them the luck and the best to win.
