“LEN has decided to lift the water polo Champions League to a new level in terms of promotion and communication” LEN President Paolo Barelli said. “This competition features the very best teams and players of the world, it was time to present it in a new frame, which is modern and based on the latest IT technologies.” The President thinks that the promotion of water polo should enter in a new phase. “While the matches are thrilling and the race for the Final Six cannot be any sharper, we all know that the competition on the sport market is just as fierce as the games in the pools. If we want to keep up with the others, to maximize the promotion for water polo and to engage more and more fans, we have to up-to-date. These new initiatives are just the first steps but we believe we set a fine example for the water polo community and all participants will do their utmost to earn further recognition to this great sport and to the Champions League which is the greatest club competition” Paolo Barelli considered.
The opening round of the Champions League preliminaries is scheduled for Saturday and Sunday.
