Bengaluru: The junior and sub junior national aquatic championships will begin on Tuesday while the senior national meet is scheduled from next week, the Swimming Federation of India announced on Monday.

With swimming pools remaining closed because of the COVID-19 pandemic last year, the SFI was forced to cancel national aquatic championships in 2020. However, over 1500 participants from across 32 states and union territories are expected to participate in the championships this year in Bangalore.

The sub junior and junior championships will be followed by the much-awaited 74th Senior National Aquatic Championships, starting October 26.
