The 27th Synchronized Swimming Festival Solo Competition for Persons with Disabilities
It is an international festival that can be attended regardless of disability, age, and gender. This was the first international solo competition for people with disabilities.
This was a large-scale synchro festival where children with disabilities can freely participate in. This festival is held only in Japan, and there have been requests from overseas. In order to create international unified rules, we held a solo competition based on the rules created by Japan. About 280 people participated this year.
