The Italian Swimming Federation (FIN) has cancelled its Olympic Trials and a host of other aquatic national championships, in water polo, diving and synchronised swimming, as a result of the coronavirus (COVID-19) lockdown of a third of Italy. The swimming trials had been scheduled for March 17-21 in Riccione but will no longer take place on those dates. There is no alternative date as things stand nor as yet any proposal for how the Italian swimming team might be selected for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.

Picture the scene. It’s August 2004 in Rhodes where the Mediterranean meets the Aegean Sea. The sun is shining in a blue sky. Holidaymakers are enjoying the island’s natural beauty and ancient civilisation. Among them are the Adlingtons , parents Steve and Kay along with daughters Chloe and Laura. But their 15-year-old sister is nowhere to be seen. That’s because Becky is in her room in front of the TV completely engrossed in the Olympics taking place a one-hour flight away in Athens.
