2019, tutta la pallanuoto che ci aspetta

Sono i Mondiali di Gwangju, in Corea del Sud, l'evento pallanuotistico più importante del 2019: la competizione Fina prenderà il via il 12 luglio, ma il via ai tornei di waterpolo arriverà solo il 14. Pur escludendo la competizione iridata, il calendario della grande pallanuoto resta fittissimo: nella tabella in basso abbiamo inserito tutti gli appuntamenti più importanti del 2019. Particolarmente intensa l'estate delle nazionali giovanili, ai "tradizionali" Mondiali U20 ed Europei U17, infatti, quest'anno si aggiunge il nuovo appuntamento degli Europei U15 e il ritorno delle Universiadi, che si svolgeranno a Napoli. Anche il 2019, dunque, sarà un anno da vivere a tutta pallanuoto.
