As it happens I am at Lignano Sabbiadoro right now.
I haven't seen a better setup for a pool comp: a 25m and 50m pool side by side, with onsite accommodation, spectator seating and excellent facilities.
The 25m pool is uniform 1.4m deep and kept at 29ºC (Suunto D4).
The 50m pool is between 2-2.5m deep and slightly colder (28ºC).
Accommodation is onsite at the GeTur tourist complex.
Alessandro has been describing the set-up for the October competition and it sounds like it will be all class: 8 underwater cameras with big screen feeds, professional commentator, national Italian TV, and much more.
I don't know if I am allowed to pass on the figure for prize money, but I can attest that it is significant.
Will.
