Men's Cup 2009

The 3rd Men's Cup of Synchronized Swimming was held by April 11th in Milan (ITA) and there was participation of several countries (Belgium, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Japan, Italy, Spain, Sweden, the Netherlands and Ukraine) and they competition had participation in Solo, Duet, Trio, Team and Combo. Synchronized Swimming remains as a women sport on the mind of many people in the world, what can be surprising for a lot of people is the amount of men that are practicing this sport and the commitment they have with what they do that even they organize their own competition :) it is probably a small step today but it is worth to believe that it will be a huge step for the future of this sport.
La 3ra Copa de Nado Sincronizado para Hombres se llevo a cabo el 11 de Abril en Milan (ITA) y hubo participacion de varios paises (Alemania, Belgica, Espana, Francia, Japon, Italia, los Paises Bajos, Republica Checa, Suecia y Ucrania) compitiendo en Solo, Dueto, Trio, Equipo y Combo. El Nado Sincronizado, para muchas personas, se asocia solamete con la idea de que es un deporte para mujeres; lo que puede resultar una sorpresa para muchos, es la cantidad de hombres que practican este deporte y el nivel de compromiso que tienen con lo que hacen y disfrutan que hasta organizan sus propias competencias :) tal vez este es un pequeno paso que dan hoy pero vale la pena creer, que este paso significara un gran avance para este deporte en el futuro.
